the den of the wolf
Tumblr media
karl heisenberg x f!reader
summary: karl voices his concerns about your safety now that he’s taken you as his lover.
word count: 1.6
warnings/tags: implied sexual relations, nudity, swearing
author’s note: anyways…
Any other woman would have run from him. Would have cowered in his shadow and trembled at the sound of his voice, would have prayed for forgiveness for whatever they could have done to earn his fearful wrath. They would have ducked their heads as they passed him, lowered their gaze in hopes he would walk right past them to wherever in hell he was ambling off to. He was terrifying, the most powerful Lord of the village who only showed his face when there was a debt to be collected or revenge to be extracted.
Any other woman would have run from him. Any other woman would have feared for her life.
But you did not. Instead of running, you stayed. Instead of ducking your head, you lifted yours to meet his gaze. Instead of praying for his gift of forgiveness, you embraced his wrath and accepted everything about him wholly.
The others down in the village said you had lost your mind to wander so close to a Lord’s heart - if they had them. They said you were not long for this earth any longer, that he would eventually lure you into that churning factory of his and devour you whole until you were nothing more than a piercing scream upon the air. No one held the Lord’s eye as long as you did, spoke to him as you did, without placing a target on their back.
You were insane, they whispered amongst themselves. To entangle yourself with the business and likes of Lord Heisenberg was plain suicide. Throwing oneself off the cliff near the edge of their perimeters would have been less painful. You could not be saved, and you were to be grieved. Your death would come swiftly, yet would be prolonged and slow and torturous. Everyone knew he enjoyed playing with his food.
Their murmurs were unable to penetrate the thick layers of snow covering the factory, the walls and the floors humming and warmed by the constant thrum of machinery down below. Their rumors were not welcome here, not within the workspace, nor the large bedroom protected within the heart of the giant machine. They did not wake you where you slept within the den of the feared wolf of the village, legs bent and arms drawn to yourself as you faced the edge of the mattress.
What did wake you was the slight shifting of clothing and the scrape of a chair against the ground. Your eyes opened to be met with the hazy picture of the window across the room, the sill piled high with pockets of snow. The next thing you took note of was the trembling ache that enveloped your body entirely - most persistently at the apex of your thighs. Your veins thrummed with exhaustion, limbs sore and neck bruised with littered love bites left there by sharp canines and insistent teeth.
The events of the previous night washed over you slowly, like an ocean’s ebb. A shot of adrenaline shot through you. You had shared a bed with a man for the first time - and not simply any man. Lord Karl Heisenberg himself. He’d touched you and felt you and made you sing such lovely songs for him until he knew your body better than herself. And then you’d fallen into this endless pit of darkness, your only purchase to the real world his hands upon you and his fingers carding through your hair and his chafed lips upon your face.
And here you lay now, in his bed, wrapped in his covers with his claim upon you still drumming through your body. You exhaled a sigh and blinked heavily. You felt content to sleep the day away here, enveloped in his scent and his feeling.
But the spot beside you was empty.
You mustered up what strength you could find within yourself and shifted over slightly. Your lover sat at his desk against the far wall, head ducked and his hand jumping as he scribbled upon pages with a pencil. His hair was secured up with a strip of leather, shirt unbuttoned and crumpled from the night prior.
Licking your lips and attempting to wet your dry mouth, you spoke softly. “Karl.”
Nothing short of enraptured by just your voice, his head lifted and he turned in his chair to look back at you. Even from here, you could see the stars dancing in his irises, the shadows and creases and specks of light that danced upon his face. He studied you for a short moment, wild strands escaping the leather and framing his whiskered jaw, before exhaling deep and climbing to his feet.
His knees cracked when he stood, a testament to just how long he had been tromping the grounds of the village down below. He was - because he said it was too much work to keep track any more - at least one hundred fifty. His mutations allowed him to outlive the world around him until there was nothing left but himself and his regrets. If there was any mercy left in the world, you would be there with him when the time came.
Karl let his weight come to rest on the mattress, then leaned over to gather you up in his arms. You marveled at his raw strength despite the small huff he gave upon settling you in his lap. The muscles in his arms flexed when he lifted you, the bit of pudge on his lower stomach tightened. When he relaxed again, holding you tight to himself spread across his thighs, he tucked your forehead against the warm nape of his neck and petted your hair.
Your could sense within the soft ticking and whirring in his chest something was the matter. You could barely keep your eyelids open, but you still implored, “What is it?”
He said nothing at first, but you knew your words struck him deep, because his grip around you became tighter and the petting of your hair became slightly rougher. His beard scratched your forehead slightly as he grumbled, “Nothing you need to worry your pretty head about.”
You blinked a moment. How foreign it was to hear a Lord of the village calling you pretty, holding you this way, with your bare chest pressed against his and your faces so close. “If it bothers you,” you murmured, “it bothers me.”
His chest jumped slightly with a gentle chuckle, one that you felt reverberate through your body. Your grip on him tightened; his on you, as well. “You are a nosy little villager, aren’t you?”
You said nothing, waiting expectantly.
Finally, he caved with a sigh that fanned across the shell of your ear. You shivered, and he reached down to pull a blanket around your shoulders. He said, choosing his words with the same care he placed into his projects, “Miranda can’t know about you. About… this.”
“I expect your mother would be happy you’ve taken a woman as your own,” you joked and smiled into his neck. “You would be the first of the Lords to do so.” Your grin faded slightly as a troubling, thunderous thought entered your mind. “That is, if… if you’ll still have me that far into the future.”
“Oh, sweetheart.” His words drove themselves into your chest like bullets as he pulled you up and held your face, bare hands warm against your cheeks. He gazed at you as if you were the solution to every problem he had, and it nearly brought tears to your eyes. He touched his forehead to yours, an action so gentle and unlike his usual gruff demeanor. He said, “I’ll always want you. I’ll always have you.”
You pursed your lips. You could drown in this sensation - of being wanted, and wanting just the same in return.
But that same downcast, almost saddened expression melted over his features again. “If she knew about you, she would take you away from me. Do things to you I couldn’t live with myself knowing happened.” His lips twitched. “That’s what mothers do, huh? Take away their brat’s toys when they misbehave.” One of his hands brushed your hair from your face, sliding a thumb across your cheek that left tingles in its wake. “You have to stay here, sweetheart. Where I can know you’re safe. And warm. And out of that bitch’s hands.”
“Okay.” The answer came so swiftly it nearly surprised the both of you. There came no hesitation or thought over it. There was no need. You lived by yourself in the village; you had no one to look after. And the other villagers thought as much of you as a begging dog at the foot of a king. You had nothing to leave behind.
And the idea of at last being eternally close to him at all hours of the day, no matter the time… it coursed your heart with a sense of pride and joy and love.
“Yeah?” he said, as if he needed one more confirmation to hear what you truly said.
You nodded your head once, resting your hand on the back of his neck so that your foreheads touched once more. “Yes,” you murmured. “Wherever you want me, I’ll be there.”
There came a moment of stillness between you, in which Karl’s throat bobbed slightly and his brows twitched as if they ached to draw together. Instead, he tipped his head and connected his lips to yours, grasping you tighter than he had even the prior night.
You were his now, and he, yours.
No one was going to take you from him.
No one.

Next Week
( steve harrington x reader )
Tumblr media
in which you just want to rent Back to the Future but every week it has already been rented and every time you come back to check Steve Harrington says it will be back. . . next week and for some reason, you still believe him.
or
in which two lovesick idiots have to make stupid excuses to talk to each other.
content warning mild cursing, steve being an idiot, the reader being an idiot, robin being the only smart one, and steve's awful description of the back to the future plot
a / n i love steve harrington so here's this... the last piece of happiness on this account before i drop so much angst with no mercy ( and then after that a robin fluff piece ) i believe you can survive this war but before that happens enjoy this mess!!
You had noticed a few things about the video store in Hawkins, Indiana. One, Keith didn’t work there alone anymore. Two, the cute boy working there always made your hands unnecessarily sweaty. And three, they never seemed to have the movies you were looking for. 
It started a few weeks ago. Your sister wanted to watch a movie that weekend after missing the showing of Back to the Future due to the unfortunate mall fire that knocked out a whole block of town. So the two of your drove to the gas station, bought a bunch of junk food, and headed to the video store. Though as soon as you walked in, you noticed the idiot who would quiz you for around twenty minutes on every movie you returned, and no you weren’t exaggerating, your sister had timed it, was no longer at the counter. But instead, the fallen king of Hawkins High, Steve Harrington, him and his hair in all its glory. You weren’t sure how his dethroning as king resulted in him getting stuck working at the video store by the arcade, for half a second you question if it was even him or maybe some weirdly similar look alike. But no, no it was Steve, you would know it anywhere. And just like any day, you had made your way to the counter, smiling at the boy who almost immediately smiled back upon meeting your gaze.
“Hi,” you greeted. 
“Hey,” he replied, reciting the lines Keith had gotten him to memorize after repeating them to him probably fifty times. “I’m Steve, welcome to Hawkins Family Video, where we bring movies to you, what can I do for you today?”
“I know who you are, Steve” you said, though immediately you wished you could turn back time find a time machine and jump backwards at how creepy it sounded. “Shit, I didn’t mean that to sound so creepy! Im sorry, I just, we went to the same high school. Well of course we went to the same high school but you know-”
“No! No, it’s good,” Steve replied, slightly stumbling over his words. “I, uh, I didn't think you were being creepy. What can I do for you today?”
“Oh, yeah, I was looking for Back to the Future,” you replied. 
“Back to the Future’ huh?” He replied.
“Yeah,I didn’t really get to see it after the whole mall burning down and all, you know?”
He only nodded, you noticing him visibly tensing up at you comment. Passing it off as nothing but it being a stranger memory, a tragedy for a small town like Hawkins, something that didn’t happen often. It was weird, the tiniest bit unsettling.
“If i'm being honest, the movie was pretty meh. Like just okay. Pretty low on the movie scale for me. I got to see it, it was a little confusing,” Steve explained, his voice slightly dropping into a whisper. “Not to spoil anything, but I’m pretty sure, the mom in that movie is trying to bang her son...so…”
You stared at him for a second, waiting for him to say he was joking. But nothing came, only silence as you stared back at him with wide eyes, your voice dropping into a whisper to match his. 
“Wait, you aren’t joking?” you asked.
“I mean, I work at a video store, would I be steering you wrong?” He asked.
“There’s no way! No way!” You practically yelled. “That’s messed up, they played that here? How did the PTA at the schools not go insane?”
“That’s what I’ve been trying to say! No one believes me,” he agreed. 
“I gotta see this movie,” you said, a quiet laugh escaping at the end of your words.
“Ill go ahead and find that for you,” he offered as he walked backwards towards the back room, bumping into the door in the process. “I’ll be right back.”
And he didn’t lie, not long after the boy headed back out of the backroom, you quickly realizing he was in fact empty handed.
“I’m sorry, just realized someone came in earlier and rented our last copy,” he tried to explain, running a hand through his hair. 
“Oh,”you replied, slightly deflating after the anticipation built up for the movie. “That’s okay, I’ll just rent something-.”
“But you can come back next week!” He interrupted, practically yelling. “It will be back next week…”
“Yeah? Okay. Cool, great! Sounds like a plan,” you replied with a slight nod. “Guess I’ll see you next week?”
“Yep, next week, see you then,” he replied, his words coming out in an awkward kind of manner. 
With a quick smile at the boy, you made your way towards the door, not even noticing that your hands were starting to become extremely clammy. Only stopped by the sound of Steve’s voice once again.
“Hey! What’s your name?” He asked. “You know, so I can keep track of who wants the movie next?”
And so you gave him your name, writing it down on a piece of paper because of his claimed horrible memory watching as he tucked it into his pocket as you exited yhe store. A smile glued to your face and a giddy somewhat nauseating feeling in your stomach as you made your way back into the car, almost forgetting the fact your sister was waiting for you. Scratch that, completely forgetting your sister was waiting for you.
“Did you get the movie?” She asked, practically groaning the sentence out. 
“What?” You asked, buckling your seatbelt.
“The movie” She replied like it was the most obvious thing. “Where is it?”
“Oh! Shit, yeah, that’s why we're here! Um, they didn’t have it, we'll have to watch it next week,” you replied nonchalantly, as something that once would have annoyed you had zero effect on your mood. “The boy who worked there said it would be back next week, wrote my name down and everything.”
The younger girl let out another groan as she dramatically collapsed back into her seat.
“Fine. But don’t expect me to watch the fucking ‘Outsiders’ with you again.”                                                                                                  
And It went on for a few weeks, you making your way to the video store every Friday night with the same answer from the boy. One would question the validity of his statement, that it would be there next week, your sister had called you a fucking idiot. Her newfound revaluation that she could say a curse word without being struck by lightning completely shifting her vocabulary.
One night you even asked for a different movie you were pretty sure no one would be watching, but of course it just so happened to have gotten rented. You didn’t mind though all that much, though you would never admit it out loud, you didn’t mind it at all. Because each time you walked in you were greeted by Steve Harrington and some sort of memorable conversation. Steve Harrington. Who was actually pretty nice company, no matter how much of a dork you had realized he was. And no matter how many times you told yourself to just watch something at your house or borrow something from your friend, you continued to drive up to the same store, only to be given the same answer. And no matter how many times your sister had called you oblivious, you ignored the metaphorical butterflies that attacked the walls of your stomach. Maybe it was those conversations, the conversations that caused you to stay way longer than you intended? The conversations that ranged from joking about Keith to talking about stuff that left the two of you there up until closing. Whatever it was, you couldn’t help yourself from coming back.
Just like any other Friday, you parked your car outside of the store, your sister no longer tagging along as she knew you weren’t getting the movie but instead a hour long conversation she would have to sit through in pure boredom. Opening the door, the little bell rang, and you were immediately caught off guard by someone else at the counter. There stood a girl, close to your age from what you could tell. Her shoulder length blonde hair was covering her face as she looked at some book that laid on the counter. Hesitantly, you made your way to the counter, feeling somewhat out of place without having the perfect haired, idiot staring at you. Like you were in a whole other building.
“Hi,” you stated, the blonde haired girl looking up from her book. Feeling as if this was somehow your first time stopping in.
“Hello,” the girl replied, gaze back on her book as she flipped to the next page.
“I come in here every week looking for Back to the Future, I’m pretty sure Steve has my name written down,” you tried to explain to the girl. “I was just wondering if it was finally here to rent?”
“‘Back to the Future’?” The girl asked, as if you were stupid.
“Yeah…” you replied, doubting yourself for a second. 
“What do you mean it hasn’t been here?” asked the girl, whose name you had picked up as Robin from her name tag. “Nobody has rented that movie for like the past two months.”
“But...I, he told me,” you said, at a loss for words.
“Well Stevie told you wrong,” said Robin, with a slight laugh, setting the book aside to set her full attention on you. “What’s your name again?”
“Y/N,” you simply replied.
“No way! Your’re the famous Y/N?” said Robin with a awestruck kind of enthusiasm. “I have been waiting to meet you. No wonder he was so upset about missing work today. He hates work, I was so surprised he even cared that much that he couldn’t be here but-”
“Famous?” You asked, the word sticking out in the midst of her ramble.
“Yeah, it’s not everyday that Steve Harrington has been so encompassed by a girl that he has to fake that ‘Back to the Future’ isn’t here just to get her back,” Robin said, a laugh following her words, almost bending over from how hard she was laughing. “What an idiot!”
“What do you mean by fake?”
“That it was gone. It was a plan to talk to you again. Oh he’s gonna kill me if he knew I told you,” she explained. “But he needs to get it over with and just ask you out. There is no way he strung it out this long!“
You stood there astonished, not even sure what to say back in response. Now your turn to wear that awestruck looks What were you even supposed to say? Where was the lesson on what to do in this type of situation?
“Is he still here?” You asked, part of you wanting to see him, the other wishing to run away and not look back.
“No matter how much I want to see this go down, sadly he had something today,” she replied. “I’m closing up tonight, but you know, I’m sure he’ll be here next week.”

pls can u write sub abby? thank u ❤️❤️❤️
ofc :) Here you go.
Tumblr media
𝓢𝓾𝓫𝓶𝓲𝓼𝓼𝓲𝓿𝓮 𝓐𝓫𝓫𝔂
Warnings: Oral (giving), public, fingering, restraints, thigh riding, scissoring, hickeys, v!brator 
Your relationship with Abby had been mostly smooth flowing. The heat when the two of you were in the same room would be enough to light an island on fire. However, you two would fight sometimes. Whether it was one too many early days, one too many late nights or one too many days of having fucked up things happen, the consequences would involve driving either one of you insane, an insanity that you would take out on each other. 
This fight was different though, it was the longest you had gone without speaking during your entire relationship thus far. You had done something risky on patrol to protect yourself and the others in your group and almost died in the process. Instead of Abby welcoming you back, saying “I’m so happy you’re not dead, my love.” She yelled at you, said some really mean things, the underlining message being that she didn’t trust you to go out without her. 
Not only this, but rather than simply not talking, Abby would constantly act petty and arrogant. She flirted with some guy in the gym in front of you, she took your favourite weapon on her assignment, she messed up the apartment, she started rumours about you, and whenever you tried to apologise or approach her about it, she’d ice you out. You didn’t understand why she was doing this. What the fuck was wrong with her? You risk YOUR life and SHE’S mad?? It just doesn’t fucking add up.
You decide to just ignore her for once and instead of heading back to your apartment, you go to the bar instead.
“I’ll get vodka please, just give me like 5 shots.” You explain to the bartender, a blonde guy on duty who you were somewhat friends with.
“You got the machine parts you owe me?” He teased. You stare at him blankly.
“Dude, I’m ordering 5 shots of vodka, today is not the day.” He sighs and grabs the glasses, pouring the clear liquid into each. 
You turn your head at the sound of that smooth voice you so love. It was Abby. Was she following you now?
You turn your head away before she can face you and instead you face the bartender, leaning in to him.
“Please go along with this for me.” You whisper. He looks confused but complies.
“Oh my god your hair is SO soft…” You say, playing with the top layers of his hair. He nods
“I got something that isn’t soft.” He says, and you need to physically restrain yourself from laughing.
It’s convincing enough for Abby, though, who disregards the conversation she’s having and walks over to you, sitting next to you at the bar. You ignore her, continuing to “flirt” with the man.
“You really gonna make me pay for these drinks?” You ask him with doe eyes. He shakes his head, leaning in to you.
“You can pay me in a different way.” Abby stands up harshly. 
“Back the fuck up, she’s with me.” Abby spits. He goes over to some other people and pours them drinks, not wanting to be involved further.
“The fuck I am, you haven’t spoken to me in nearly a month.” You tell her. She lets out a deep sigh followed by a desperate and crooked smile.
“I uh…guess I was kind of a dick, huh?”
“Abby…you made me feel like shit. In fact, leave me alone, I was having a nice conversation before you arrived.”
“Oh please, he’s not your type.” Abby says simply. You shove her, getting off your chair. 
“Like you’d fucking know.”
“He’s a man, baby, there’s no way he can please you like I can.”
“Hmm, well. I guess we’ll see.” You say with a confident smirk as you approach the blonde gentlemen again. Abbys face shifts into panic mode as she stumbles towards you, grabbing your wrist.
“Wait, wait, please…please I’m sorry, I’m so sorry.”
“Talk. Why the fuck have you been such a prick?”
“I don’t know. I guess it was easier than…admitting how fucking scared I was. You could have died and it pissed me off, I have a right to be mad when you do reckless things.”
“No. You would have done the same, don’t give me that bullshit.” You turn away again.
“Wait I- I love you.” She says. You feel heat warm your cheeks and neck, but you say nothing, you just dwell in this feeling for a while. Then, finally, you face her.
🎀𝓼𝓶𝓾𝓽🎀
“Come with me.” You direct her out into a hall and slam her against the wall with your full body strength. She lets out a surprised gasp and you immediately shove your tongue into her throat. It’s only several minutes later when you’re both gasping for air that you pull away.
“You were such an idiot Abby. I’m going to teach you to talk to me next time you have a problem.” She nods, eyes still on the floor. You get down on your knees and she anxiously looks around. You just smirk confidently. “There’s people….” Abby breathes out. You get back up to her height and tilt your head, unimpressed.
“Did I say you could talk?” She shakes her head and you return to your knees, pulling her pants down to her ankles. You suck on the soft part between her muscles on her large thighs, leaving a purple mark in its wake. 
“Got something to say to me?” You ask her, looking up into her blue eyes. She exhales, sharply. 
“I…ugh, fuck….I’m sorry.” 
“Oh yeah? How much?” You ask, pulling her underwear down too. She lets out a deep, shaky breath.
“I’m so-“
“Don’t tell me. Show me.” You command, inserting a finger roughly into her and then tonguing in between her folds. She lets out a moan which was unmistakably stifled. You stop and stand up again.
“The fuck was that?” You ask, harshly. She looks embarrassed. 
“I know I deserve this it’s just…there’s people around-���
“You’re right, you do deserve this, and in case I wasn’t clear before, if you don’t do what I say I’ll stop, and that will be a worse fate for you than any of these insignificant losers hearing how good I fuck you.” 
Abby is speechless at your words. In any regular context, she could pin you down with one hand and fuck you with the other, making you cum in only a matter of moments. This wasn’t anything like that. It was intimate in a way she almost didn’t recognise. The craving for each other’s touch was second to no other desire in the world, the possessiveness and clear control you had over her, the control she let you have, it was turning her on in ways she didn’t expect and that her brain couldn’t fully comprehend. And now you were licking, sucking and spitting on her cunt while that one fucking finger explores her tight hole. What a fucking tease, tasting her like it’s the best thing you’ll ever taste and all while only a few footsteps away from other WLFS.
“S’ good baby~ oh fuck…” She moans, her voice deep. You smile into her cunt, increasing the pace as you circle her clit with your tongue. It felt good to have her back, that girl made you feel crazy in the best way possible.
“Mmmph…mm so…close” You remove your tongue and add another finger, circling the upper walls of her cunt. She lets out a small whimper, so quiet you almost didn’t hear it. Abby certainly wished you didn’t, cause you were definitely gonna tease her about it later.
“Aw, close already baby? Who knew you were so easy to please?” She rolls her eyes.
“Shut- Mmmm” She lets out a pornographic moan when you insert a third finger into her throbbing pussy. 
“You’re not in control of me today. In fact, you belong to me, say it.”
“N…o” Abby tried, her eyes rolling back along with her head. Your thrusting becomes harder.
“Don’t make me ask you again.”
“O-okay okay fuck…I belong to yo-” You put your tongue in her one final time and it’s all it takes to push her over the edge. 
“mmm!” She cums harshly, gripping onto your hair as she does so. Instead of letting her revel in the sensation and watching her face as she returns to reality, you keep the pressure on her, your pace relentless. 
“What are you d- oh my f— fuck stop st- mmmmm oh fuck-“ She cries, bucking her hips into you and consequently thrusting her cunt further into your mouth. Her back arches and her moans are getting louder now.
“OH F- fuck baby stop I’m so f-fucking sensitive-“ You didn’t give a fuck. The sounds she made when your tongue and your tongue alone explored and pleasured her in ways no one else could was like ecstasy and you could get drunk off the sound of it. 
“MMM PLEASE PL- mmm” Abby whined. You really did love her too, but she didn’t need to know that quite yet. 
“I-I…” You want to laugh. Abby fucking Anderson, WLF soldier, bulkier and stronger than most men, whimpering over her pussy getting licked by a girl. It was cute, adorable really.
“Gonna c-“ She couldn’t finish that sentence, didn’t need to, you could tell from the way her muscles tensed, how her thighs pressed against your face and glistening slick poured onto it.
“Mmm…” Abby hums as she cums a second time, her swollen cunt not getting a break. 
You decide to go up this time, after all you would probably require oxygen at some point. This wasn’t going to stop here though.
“Bedroom.” Is all you say as you shove her back and make your way to your room, letting her swiftly pull her pants back up and gather herself before making her way past the main hall to the dorms. Almost everyone looked at the two of you and were actively avoiding eye contact. Fuck, they definitely heard.
You both hurried to the room and you jump on her, pushing her back onto the bed. You kiss her passionately, the taste of Abby lingering in both of your mouths. 
“Stay here and take all your shit off.” You say, turning away from the awe-struck Abby. She’s not sure whether to be impressed, embarrassed, turned on or all 3, but she does as you say, removing her shoes, shirt, jeans and already drenched underwear. You walk over to her bag and grab out a metal pair of handcuffs. She’s gonna look so fucking good in them, you can’t help but think.
You walk over to her, not showing her the handcuffs yet. She’s wearing your favourite one of her bras and you can’t help but admire her. 
“Put your arms up.” You say. Her large, muscular fucking arms.
When she does this, you grab her hands and pull them down, putting the handcuffs on her tightly and  cuffing her to the bed frame. Fuck, she was a site for sore eyes.
She looks beyond shocked as she moves her arm, trying to see if she was really constrained. 
“Remember the safe word?” You ask. She rolls her eyes.
“This is so fucking embarrassing.” 
“Do you want me or not?”
“…yes.” Abby admits. You smile, sitting on her hips.
“Then let me take you the way I want.” You say, sucking on her stomach and leaving a silky trail of saliva over her chest. Then, you unclip her bra, throwing it onto the floor. Your eyes widen at the side of her soft tits and hard nipples, just waiting eagerly to be sucked. You do so and she lets out a gasp.
“Mmnn” You keep going, running circles of her nipples. Then, you move down to the lower part of her breast and suck so hard it leaves a pretty red mark there. 
“So pretty for me.” You  say, and she’s to embarrassed to reply.
You grab a vibrator from the side table, it’s a pretty, pink, rechargeable one that you always used when Abby wasn’t around. She gasps at the site of it and tries to free herself from the cuffs and you just smile at her efforts. You put the lower part into her and rest the top part on her clit. You turn it on medium pulse and stand up, taking off your pants but leaving your panties on, They’re pretty, pink lace ones that Abby would ordinarily rip from your body with her teeth. The now defenceless Abby, however, watched you, entranced and desperate as you position yourself on her thigh, wrapping your arms around her neck and moving yourself slowly up and down her thigh.
“Take them off….” Abby sighs, not wanting to admit to you or herself how good the vibrator felt. You start sucking on her neck as hard as you can while still moving your hips on her thigh.
“Where are your manners Abs?” You tease. She sighs again. 
“Please?” You take off your shirt, revealing a matching bra. She leans over to kiss them but is returned to the reality of her restraints. Deciding to tease her further, you suck on her breasts again, adding a matching mark to her other tit. She looks infuriated, like she would rail the shit out of you if she could. But she can’t, and that made it so much better.
“Oh fuck~” Abby moans quietly, enjoying the vibrators pulse. You put your hand inside her and turn up the setting and she’s immediately crying out.
“Fuck, fuck wait p-please.” 
“You didn’t talk to me for a month.” You say, rolling your hips over her thighs. Fuck it felt good, too.
“Sorry.” Abby breathes out as the vibrator danced inside her. You lean in more so the top part of your clit can really savour its favourite sex toy, her muscular thighs.
“You flirted with a man at the gym”
“You flirted with a man at the…oh f-fuck…the bar…” She says. She put a hand on her throat, squeezing tightly. 
“The only word out of your mouth should be sorry, or had you forgotten.”
“Sorry….” She moans. You’re pretty close now too and you keep moving up and down.
“You messed up the apartment.” You exclaim and Abbys eyes shut tight.
“I’m gonna-“
“Shut the fuck up. You made me feel like an idiot.”
“S—sorr-oh god.” Abby cries, and the sight of her cum dripping out of her pussy was picture worthy, something you would never forget.
You don’t turn it off though, not yet, and now she’s whimpering in a way you were sure would give you and eargasm. 
“You’re so sexy in cuffs Abigail.” You say, and the flustered, bulky woman squirms.
“God Abby hold still.” You say, putting all your body pressure onto her thigh to stop her movements as you thrust up on her thigh, letting yourself orgasm too. After about another minute of her whimpering, you finally turn off the vibrator, holding her face and kissing it.
“F…forgive me now?” She asks. You think for a second, but there’s one more thing you still have to try.
“Almost.” You say, taking off your underwear and bra. She doesn’t have the chance to speak even if she could.
“Need to feel all of you. You explain, putting your legs over hers and positioning your clits together.
“It’s too soon we just-“ 
“You’ve got one more in you Abby, I know it.” You comfort her as you start rocking your hips. She lets out a low grumble sound and moves her head back, her long, soft braid falling over her shoulder. 
“What was that thing you said before?” You ask over her pretty little moans. She’s flushing crimson at this point.
“You’re asking n…now mm~” She lets out. You moan too, fuck it felt amazing, you could feel the combined heat and wetness, you could hear the sweet sounds, it wouldn’t be long now.
“Mmm fucking say I-it….” You moan, gripping onto one of her biceps. 
“L…love you” She whimpers. You move faster.
“I…fuck I love you.” She breathes. Faster. “I….fucking….love….you” She manages as every inch of her fades away and you are left with just the feeling of your sweat and cum soaked bodies. You grab the key from beside you and unlock the cuffs, smiling at her.
“Well you could have just said that, I love you too.” You mock. She rolls her eyes, pinning you down below her. 
“You are fucking trouble.” She says, kissing you passionately.

Fuck whatever DC is doing with the al Ghul's characterizations and story lines, I've decided that from now on the al Ghul's are gonna be DC's version of the Addams Family instead.
Now I don't mean just give the various al Ghul's the exact personalities of the various Addams and call it a day. That's boring, that erases all the interesting parts of the al Ghuls, that's just using "find & replace" and not actually adding anything. I mean give them the vibes of the Addams Family.
Keep the al Ghul's as the al Ghul's with all their scheming and machinations and world domination attempts but give them all the unhinged energy, the casually insane view of the world, the deranged levels of love and devotion for family. Make them that group where objectively they are batshit insane but also you cannot argue with the fact that they are indisputably the most stable and functional family in the entire universe.
They're creepy, they're kooky, they're mysterious and spooky. Ra's many opulent homes and impenetrable fortresses are a museum and the al Ghul's really are a screa-um whenever people come to see-um (or when they lay waste upon their enemies in a surprise attack that has been planned for months and is just the first domino in a series that will ultimately lead to achieving a far greater goal).
They all love each other and want each other to be happy, they express this primarily with stabbing and murder attempts (its fine, death is a thing that happens to other people).
And forget the League of Assassins being a cult. Just make the whole vast globe spanning organization a collection of cousins/aunts/uncles/dear old friends ect. No one (not even the al Ghuls, if they cared to keep track of such things) is sure who is actually related to them and who just got absorbed into the ever expanding family tree based on their vibes being right.
(Is Sensei Ra's father you ask? Well he's certainly someone's father - probably.
Anyway have you heard about Cousin Cheshire? Despicable poisoner of a young woman, capable of the most horrific things imaginable - yes she is the sweetest dear. Like I was saying though, she just had a baby!
Everyone in the family is just so excited to throw a baby shower to celebrate! Ubu has really gone all out with the spike traps, he does so love getting to welcome a new addition to the family.
Talia of course has cultivated a brand new strain of the most toxic plants imaginable to make a brand new kind of necrotizing poison. You know, as a nice little romantic gift for Cousin Cheshire and that young man of hers. It really is so important to make sure you take time for you and your partner to go on dates and have a few pitched battles to the death on dark rooftops in the pounding rain when you have children.
Now there is some to-do about it all of course, you know how family get together can be. Everyone is arguing over who should get to give little Lian her first weapon and what it should be. Nyssa is pushing for grenades but Ra's is insisting on a sword - he's traditional like that you know - but Dusan has the vote so far on throwing knives. You know the kind that have the little divots along the edges of the blades them to make it easier to get the poison you dip them in to stick.)
I'm just saying that the al Ghuls should be a delightful cross between the Bond Villains they were originally conceived as and the lovingly unhinged Addams Family. It just feels correct in my heart.
(Again keep the interesting aspects of the characters and the nuances of who each of them are like their drive to save the world through destroying humanity and their strong environmentalist leanings and their constantly playing 5D chess and everything, but like, take away the racism and the cartoonishly evil for no reason bullshit and give them some fun feral energy to go along with it).
#batman#ra's al ghul#al ghul family#talia al ghul#nyssa raatko#cheshire dc#sensei dc#no more racism and fucked up dark family dynamics#the al ghuls aggressively adore each other#violence and schemes is their love language#in the full au version of all of this i'd like to imagine how canon plot points change with the al ghuls having these vibes#Just imagine Damian still trying to kill Tim when he first ends up in Bruce's care#but instead of it being a ploy to get rid of a threat its because he's just so excited to meet one of his big brothers#and attempted murder is just how you tell someone in your family that you love them#Tim just SO CONFUSED because Damian is talking so animatedly about how happy he is to get to have some brotherly bonding with Tim#while ACTIVELY trying to run him through with a sword#idk how things change with Cass exactly but i feel like they would in this#like either David Cain isn't an absolute monster or the al ghuls catch wind of what he's doing & are like#This is NOT how al ghuls treat family! what is this shameful behavior! She can't even insult you while you fight!#fighting and violence is a perfectly healthy way to express your love but only if there's actually LOVE involved!#The Heretic & other Damian clones still get made but only because Talia just misses her son so much that she makes more of him#Nyssa has just been bopping around the world for a few centuries & pops up every now and then to have a death match with her baby sister#i just have a lot of strong feelings about the al ghuls deserving better and combined that with the vibes of my favorite unhinged family#Dick still hates Talia but Talia takes all his insults as her darling step son telling her how much he loves her#which only drives Dick even crazier#Tim rocks up to the League of Assassins during his whole trying to prove Bruce is alive thing already seen as an al ghul#Oh yeah that's Cousin Timothy he's one of Talia's kids - never met a truer al ghul in your life#You see how he blew up all those bases? Ra's cried he was so proud#Ra's spoils his grandkids absolutely rotten which is giving Bruce SO MANY gray hairs

Part 5 - Part 7 (TBA)
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
William held your hand as he drove, his thumb languidly running over your knuckles as a soft tune crackled from the radio. The two of you had almost entirely finished unpacking, your week off together slowly winding down with every discarded cardboard box. You both decided that you were due for a much needed break, neither of you stopping to do so much as take a breather the past couple days. “I'm telling you, I wouldn't risk it. Henry might shoot you if he sees you trying to slip back into parts and services.” You chuckle, giving your husband's hand a soft squeeze.
“Well, unfortunately for him, I need my tools. That leaky sink isn't going to fix itself and I don't have the right size wrench at the house to do it.” He laughs as you pull into the lot. The bright sign of Freddy Fazbear’s Pizzeria welcoming you as the lone beacon in the night. William hops out of the car, walking around to your side in order to open the door for you. He wraps an arm around your shoulders as you stand, pulling you into his side and placing a kiss to the top of your head. This place had become a second home to the both of you, it having played a backdrop for some of the most pivotal moments of your and your husband's relationship, the old building held a very special place in your heart. You're greeted with the familiar sound of arcade machines pinging and the excited screams of children as they race around, fists clamped tightly around their winnings of bright orange tickets.
“Well, howdy you two! Isn't this a nice surprise!” Henry approaches you, arms already open for a hug as he greets you jovially.
“I still owe my girl that pizza.” William chuckles, clapping Henry on the back as he pulls him into a tight hug. Henry turns to you, laughing slightly as he asks.
“Well what toppings would you like on that little lady? I'll gladly pop back into the kitchen and put in a special order just for you.” you can't help but roll her eyes at the sound of his customer service tone breaking through.
“Just pepperoni Henry, thank you.” She smiles.
“We’re just going to pop back to parts and services, I have to fix some stuff at the house.” Will gently takes you by the wrist, tugging you towards the back of the restaurant before Henry has a chance to protest.
“The two of you haven't even been in that house a week and you managed to break something?” He asks with a laugh. “What? Get a little too frisky in the shower and rip the faucet off the wall?” You can't help but giggle at the sight of your husband's cheeks darkening.
“Leaky tap in the kitchen.” You decide to explain the situation before Henry has a chance to tease Will even more. “I promise I won't let him start working.”
“You have ten minutes.” He jokes, waving a finger at both of you before heading towards the kitchen. You smile as a kid rushes past you towards the stage show that was just beginning to start.
“You know, even after all this time I still love watching them perform.” You muse with a small laugh. Your hand slides into William’s, the two of you exchanging a smile as you head towards parts and services. The two of you slipped from the chaos of the pizzeria into the nearly silent hallway, William had always liked to be kept as far away from the main room as possible, he would always argue that it lowered the chance of a kid finding their way down to his workshop and getting hurt, but you knew it was just because he liked the quiet. He pulls his ring of keys from his pocket, unlocking the door without much thought as the two of you head inside. William lets out a sigh of relief as he kicks the door shut.
“Silence at last, I don't know how he stands being out there all day.” He chuckles, sliding an arm around your waist and pulling you to him. “It feels like it's been years since we were in here together.” You roll your eyes, sliding your hands over his chest as you turn yourself to face him.
“I'm sorry, years? I think I remember you having me bent over that work bench a couple weeks ago.” You smirk, making your husband chuckle before he captures your lips in a heated kiss. You let out a soft hum as you melt into him, his beard scratchy against your soft skin as you held each other tightly. He pulls back from you, swiping his thumb over your bottom lip. His hands drop to your hips, lifting you up onto one of the counters that lined the walls with ease. You look around the room with a fond expression, a nostalgic look your husband didn't miss.
“Lots of memories in this room, huh rabbit?” Your eyes snap to your husband, a soft smile on his face as he studies you.
“I guess you could say that.” You giggle, fidgeting with a ratchet you had found by your side. Your smile widens as you watch your wedding ring glint in the golden afternoon light. “Do you remember when we got engaged?” You ask quietly.
“How could I forget?” He chuckles, straightening up and walking over to you. “It was the day the most beautiful woman in the world agreed to be my wife, of course I remember.”
You slammed through the door of parts and services, making William jump and the machine part he had situated in his lap clatter to the floor. “Bunny?” His confused and concerned tone reached your ears and the sound alone was enough to make you break down in tears. The moment he realized the state you were in, William was up out of his chair and rushing to your side. “Honey, what's wrong? Are you hurt?” He wraps his strong arms around you, pulling you into his chest. He shushes you quietly, waiting for your hiccuping and sniffling to quiet down before asking you again. “Baby, what happened? Talk to me.”
“I just… It’s stupid Will, I don't really want to talk about it.” He shakes his head, rubbing his hands up and down your arms to try and keep you calm.
“It's not stupid bunny. If it matters enough to you that it makes you cry it matters to me.” He reminds you in a calm tone. “Tell me what's the matter, baby.” You take a few deep breaths, wiping at your face roughly with your hands.
“I ran into some girls I went to high school with and it just reminded me how far behind all of them I am.” You couldn't meet his eyes. At this point you didn't even know why William still wanted to be with you. He was smart, successful, ungodly handsome. You were just you. Still working the same job at the pizzeria, you weren't married, didn't have any kids, didn't have any accomplishments to show for yourself. “They've all got these big important jobs and drive fancy cars and they have these amazing wonderful lives with their husbands and I… I’m nothing.” Will stood there, staring at you with a slack jawed expression.
Were you being serious? William noticed the way tears pricked at your eyes, the way you crossed your arms over your chest as you leaned against the workbench, your lip trembling in frustration as your gaze looked anywhere but at him. He lets out a huff, his eyes darting around his workshop. He grabbed the mechanism he had been working on, wrapping one of the protruding wires around his hand, tugging it free with a loud snap. He pushes tools around the crowded space, letting out a satisfied noise when he finds the wire strippers he was searching for. He clips them on about halfway down the wire, shucking off the bright red insulated coating with ease to reveal the shining copper underneath. He takes the end of it, twisting the strands together tightly before taking a pair of cutters and snipping off the cable. He takes a ring terminal and crimps it on one side of the cord, on the other end he crimps on a connector, slipping it through the terminals loop before placing a bright yellow plastic cap on it. He carefully forms it into a neater circle before taking long, fast strides in your direction. He grabs your hand in his, sliding the makeshift ring into place on your finger.
“I promise you, tomorrow morning I’m going to go buy you the real thing. But, for right now,” He holds your hands tightly in his, silver eyes locking onto yours as Will poured his heart out to you. “I am in love with you, I have been since the beginning. There isn't a morning that I wake up, or a time where I go to sleep where I don't think about just how goddamn lucky that I am to have you. You are the air in my lungs, the reason my heart keeps beating, bunny you are my entire world. I'm sorry that it took you bursting in here almost in tears for me to finally say all of this but if I'm being entirely honest I was terrified to admit just how deeply in love with you I am. Out of everyone you could have had you somehow chose me and for the life of me I still can't understand why. How could an angel like you ever love someone like me? It doesn't matter where you think you compare to any of those women because I know that you are the most incredible, talented, smartest, most loving woman I have ever met, I could never love someone more than how much I love you.” You felt hot tears streaming down your cheeks, your hands trembling in Will’s strong grip.
“Will you be my wife?”
“Yes.” Your voice comes out barely above a whisper, still not fully believing what you were hearing. You slowly begin to nod your head, slowly shaking it faster as you repeat your answer with growing excitement. “Of course I'll marry you, I love you so much.” You let out a sniffly laugh as you pull him into a passionate kiss.
You twist your wedding ring around your finger, your eyes drifting up to your husband as he steps in front of you. He holds out a recreation of your stand-in engagement ring, a small bashful smile lacing his lips. “And after all this time you're still mine.” He remarks quietly.
“I'd marry you all over again if I could.” You pull your bottom lip between your teeth. His hands slide over your hips, hiking you to the edge of the workbench you had situated yourself on. His eyes scan over your face hungrily, his steely gray eyes darkening as a smirk spreads across his features. He guides your legs around his waist, letting out a groan before his lips crash against yours. He wraps a hand loosely around your throat, angling your jaw to deepen the kiss. You let out a soft gasp as he nips at your bottom lip, allowing him to effortlessly slip his tongue into your mouth. He lets out a soft, satisfied hum against your lips.
The door bursts open behind you, “Oh, for Christ’s sake! Lock the door you animals!” Henry exclaims as he slaps a hand over his eyes. William chuckles as he pulls away from you, leaving you utterly breathless.
“Relax, we’re both fully clothed.” He groans, making you giggle. Henry holds a pizza box in his hand.
“Go home and enjoy this, I don't want to see either of you back in this building until Monday.” He waves a finger at them, you couldn't help but laugh at the fact he still chastised both of you like children. Will motions for you to follow, figuring since he had what he needed you could head out. Henry walks the two of you out to your car, pulling you into a tight hug before you slip into the passenger seat, the pizza tucked safely onto your lap. Will stood outside the car talking to Henry too quietly for you to hear, but from the giddy expression on your husband’s best friend's face you knew they were up to something.

Chapter 5
Fury
Nothing compared to the highest rooftops of New York in the dead of night. Serenity and stillness above the constantly bustling chaos just below— The perfect hiding spot and vantage point. There was so much happening on the ground that people never bothered to look up all that much. Well, maybe they did a little more since you came into the picture.
It was a long journey but you eventually won the hearts of your fellow citizens. After years of fighting it couldn’t be denied that you were only here to help, despite what the Daily Bugle preached every Sunday.
“All units be advised,” the comm crackles in your ear. “Disturbance in Washington Square Park. Suspect reported to be superhuman.”
The largest victory in the past few years was probably getting the cops to finally trust you. Well, trust was a strong word. You could finally get in and fight a threat without having to worry about dodging gunfire or a helicopter chase afterward. The city's precincts were a good mix of welcoming your help with open arms or begrudgingly working with you. Still, it was better than what it had been.
Regardless, the NYPD were your eyes all over the city and you were the last call they hoped they’d never have to make. 
“Call in the spider.”
That’s your cue— and you were finally close for once. Washington Square Park. No more than 5 minutes as the spider swings. You jump from your perch by the river and start making your way there. As you swing more reports come in.
“Suspect armed and dangerous. Explosives used.”
“Immediate area evacuated.”
“Suspect is airborne. Repeat, suspect is airborne. He’s got wings, fella’s.”
Oh, this was ramping up to be a really good night, but the next report nearly sends you tumbling.
“I don’t believe it– it’s— the Goblin. It’s the Green Goblin.”
Norman? No, he’d been dead for years. Killed by his own machines. This had to be a sadistic follower. A copycat. It wouldn’t be the first time you’d dealt with someone following in the footsteps of one of your mortal enemies.
Just another fun perk to this job.
You swing past the police barrier, landing in the circular concrete center of the deserted park. It was completely dark. They must have taken out all the street lamps. You couldn’t hear that god-awful maniacal laughter, but you smelled the residue from that stupid glider. The chemicals from some pumpkin bombs too. They were close, and they’d likely seen you swing in.
“Here, Goblin, Goblin, Goblin,” you taunt as you circle the center fountain. “If you come out we can play nice and maybe talk about our feelings.”
“ Spider-Girl , ” And there was that horrible, scratchy voice only someone with diagnosed insanity would think is cool. It definitely didn’t belong to Norman Osborn, though. You turn in its direction, only greeted with the sight of dark looming trees. “ Love the new suit. ”
“Oh, this old thing,” you mockingly bash, scanning the grassy area, “Just had it lying around, ya know. Not sure it’s really me though.” 
“ Where am I? ” the faceless voice sneers, “ It was daytime. I was flying, then— You. You did this, didn’t you? ”
They were agitated— likely manic and confused, how could they not be if they’d somehow gotten their hands on the Goblin formula. You were the only target they had, and they likely hated you before all of this happened. You opt for the negotiating route.
“Look, buddy. We don’t have to fight,” You slowly raise your hands as a small peace offering, “If you’re confused, we can just—”
The figure bursts from the darkness, grabbing you by the throat and soaring into the night air. So much for negotiating. As you fly past the surrounding skyline you finally get a good look at your villain. 
This goblin was a woman— with the most comically ridiculous pointed goblin ears you’d ever seen. She didn’t ride a proper glider but surfed on what looked more like a rocket. She wore head-to-toe metallic purple with some basic armoring around her mid-section and shoulders. All of her gear was clearly professionally made. 
But there was something else about her. A faint aura. The way her body moved. The lines of her sadistic face— Something not of this world.
She was an anomaly. 
Of course, how did you not think of it before? The one night you didn't wear your watch. It would have alerted you right away. You’d never had an anomaly enter your dimension before. Every one of them you’d faced up until the point was in someone else’s world. Other dimensions already felt so strange and off-kilter to you, you never stopped to think about how truly out of place the anomalies were. They all looked alien when the entire world was alien. 
But this was your neck of the woods. This was your home and she was just so clearly not part of it.
“ How did you do this? ” she steadies her glider and holds you out over empty air.
“Would you believe me if I said this wasn’t your dimension?” You wheeze out in her grasp.
Through some divine comedic timing, she glitches. As her hand phases between worlds, you fall from her grasp. You tumble a few dozen feet before catching yourself on a building. Clinging to the brick, you look back up at your new goblin assailant. 
The glitching comes to a shaky stop and she steadies herself on her rocket glider again. She takes a small moment to look down at her hands, a wave of shock overtaking her green face before it settles into fiendish joy.
“ So... I can travel between dimensions? ” she says more to herself than to you. 
“ Travel is a strong word,” You get her attention. 
She looks at you, “ You’re not my Spider-Girl? ”
“It’s Spider -Woman, actually.” you ready yourself to pounce at any moment. 
“ How many of you are there? ” She asks, anger dotting her words.
“Oh yeah sure, just let me just give you a quick overview of the multiverse,” Without giving her time to react you shoot a web to the tip of her rocket glider, thrusting it off kilter in one motion. She goes flying. You jump after her, “That’s a terrible glider design by the way.”
“ Insolent brat! ” She screams, reaching out her hand. You reach for her, only to instantly be met with open air as she’s swept away by the glider. She can summon her dumb rocket- surfboard. 
Of course.
You bank to her right, shooting web to at least immobilize her hands. Any web that gets near her is immediately slashed by blades now protruding from her wrists. You aim for her glider again, but she easily bobs and weaves past all of your shots now that she knows what to expect. She was better on that thing than you thought.
You jump, sticking yourself to the underside of the rocket glider. If you can’t stop her, then you’ll just have to dance with her.
“ You think you're a match for the Goblin QUEEN? ” She sneers, whipping around wildly to fling you off.
“Oh, apologies, your majesty. ” You rip off a panel of the flying device, grabbing at any cables and wiring you can, “I didn’t realize I was in the presence of royalty.”
She grunts in frustration, whipping you to the left and slamming you into the nearest building. In the midst of the searing impact, you lose your grip on her. 
“ Pathetic.” She swings around to hover in front of you, “ You’re not my Spider, but you’ll do for now. ” She barrels toward you at full force, a massive blade unsheathing from the front of her glider. Without time to jump, you catch her glider— holding her at arm's length while the blade extends out to mere inches from your face.
The brick around you cracks and crumbles as the full force of her glider pushes down on you.
“ I’ll kill you, then I’ll harness this power and kill ALL of you,” Oh great, she was monologging , “ Every Spider, dead by my hands. This is what I was born to do!”
“M-might wanna check that ego, lady!” you grunt, hiking up your feet to push back on the body of her glider. It was awkward but you had the leverage— you just don’t know how long you can hold it.
You kick your legs up, using her own force against her, and send her spiraling backward. You immediately get out of your cornered position and head back towards the open park. If she was covered in knives and reportedly using explosives, best to keep her away from any buildings. Make her focus all of her attention on you. You stand in the center circle again as she hovers overhead.
“ You can’t run, Spider-Woman, ” She taunts, “ And you can’t win .”
You don’t time have for a witty remark before she’s charging at you again, her glider's blade front and center.
You’re about to act when a bassy boom crackles and rips through the air, giving you both pause.
Then you feel it— A buzzing at the base of your skull. 
Oh, you gotta be fucking kidding.  
The portal forms just to your right. His webs appear first, red treads shooting from the golden light. They latch onto her glider. The Goblin, shocked, attempts to correct her course, pulling Miguel the rest of the way out of the portal with her. He stands strong, several strands of webs in each hand. He whips his lassos downward, sending her flying off the glider. Before she can summon it back he whips his arms again, redirecting it straight into the ground. It explodes instantly.
He drops the webbing and shakes off his shoulders. He turns to you, sleek mask obscuring his face. He was here. He was actually here.
“Uh, Thanks,” You say, “Was trying to get her off that stupid thing for like 10 minutes now.”
“Don’t mention it,” Though you can’t see it, you can hear the smile in his voice.
“Two of you now? ” your assailant broods from the shadows. You and Miguel immediately stand back to back at the sound of her voice, “ No matter, you’ve stopped nothing. You can’t stop Fury. You can’t stop destiny. ”
“Oh, she’s a monologuer,” Miguel scoffs.
“Mhm, she’s already vowed to kill all of spider-kind.”
“Well, we can’t have that,” he tuts back.
“Are all of you always so arrogant?” She sneers.
“Pretty much,” You answer.
What happens next you still can’t fully articulate. It was a matter of milliseconds, yet it felt as if the world moved at half its normal speed. 
You feel it before you see or hear it. She throws three pumpkin bombs. Before the devices even leave her hands you know exactly what direction they're coming from in the darkness— And seemingly so does Miguel. You move together in perfect unison, dodging the explosives as they implode on the ground. She starts circling the two of you, throwing bomb after bomb. Still, not one touches you. Here in a complete darkness, it’s like you could feel every move she was going to make.
“Damned Spiders,” She  grunts in frustration as she throws another pumpkin bomb into the concrete clearing. This one doesn’t explode on impact though. You and Miguel pause.
“Smoke!” He shouts, just a second too late. Pink gas explodes from the device. You’re able to escape only after having gotten a lung full of the nasty stuff. You cough and wheeze, barely able to swing to safety in the sparse trees. Miguel is nowhere to be seen, but you can sense him nearby. Maybe this spider-sense thing was coming in handy for once.
Goblin laughter from behind sends a shiver up your spine. You turn to see her perched in an oak tree. Just a few yards beyond her, a broad figure lurks in the settling pink mist. To catch this one, you had to be smarter. You’d have to lure her in— and part of you thinks Miguel has the same idea.
“Not bad, for a Psychopath,” you dust your legs off.
“ I think you mean visionary ,” She croons. “ You and your brutish Spider-man are no match for- ”
“Say’s the lady with no ride and a quickly dwindling supply of Spirit Halloween props.” You glance over and Miguel crouches down to all fours— Ready to pounce at exactly the right moment. Her guard is still up, if he jumped now he’d be met with a grenade directly to the face. You could distract her. Get all of her attention on you again. She obviously liked to talk, so…
“How do you even become Queen of the Goblins ?” You ask, leaning against a tree. “Is there a king? Is it David Bowie?!”
“ Silence! ” She screams. When in doubt, always go for the ego with super villains, “ I was chosen by Norman Osborn. Chosen at birth and raised for this purpose. ”
“Norman Osborn is dead.” you sneer, “And he certainly isn’t bestowing his messed up legacy on babies.”
“ In your reality, maybe. In mine, he’s a god, ” She crouches down, “ But you’ve opened my eyes to the possibilities, dear. Osborn lives, somewhere out there. I’ll find him. I’ll rally the goblins and we’ll finally kill you all.”
“Norman Osborn is dead ,” You repeat, “He always dies. Always . And it’s always a Spider standing over him.”
“ Not anymore.” You see her face contort in anger. Attacking her goblin cult leader must be the way to go.
“You know why?” You step toward her, “Because he’s weak.” 
“Shut. Your. Mouth. ”
“Just a weak, pathetic, ordinary , man.”
“ Shut up! ”
You ready yourself, “Make me.”
She barely gets a foot off her branch before Miguel pounces from behind. All in an instant, he grabs her, pinning her arms to her chest— a portal forms above you, and Miguel, Goblin Queen in hand, fly’s through it.
It blips closed before you can follow. You instinctively reach for your watch, only to realize again you did wear it tonight. Of course, that’d make everything too easy. Why would you wear it if you weren’t planning on an interdimensional battle tonight? A mistake, you assure yourself, you’ll never make again.
The brief thought of hurrying directly home and following Miguel flashes through your mind. Even if you could somehow get back to your Brooklyn apartment in a matter of minutes, you still had other duties to attend to. The sound of several officers entering the park brings you back to reality. Miguel was a pro— he could handle it from here. You needed to let your people know the situation was taken care of.
You speak with the Sargent and Captain at the scene, spinning some lie about her being a deranged follower and one of her bombs malfunctioning, and vaporizing her instantly. It was absolutely ridiculous but they trusted you to never lead them astray. Better to lie here than release the secret of access to the multiverse. The threat to your city was gone. That’s all that mattered.
You, fortunately, manage to escape a press statement this time, regretfully leaving that task up to Captain Stacy. He was better with the cameras than you were anyway.
It’s nearly 3 a.m. when you finally get back home, sneaking into the building through your rooftop perch. Honestly, it’s an earlier night than most. Your back aches from being slammed into a brick wall and your head is still spinning from whiplash. A hot shower and your bed sounded like paradise.
Your building was an old warehouse renovated sometime in the 2000s. It used to be a massive bakery. You swear you can still smell freshly baked bread in the bricks some 20 years later. You fucking loved your apartment. Vaulted ceilings, massive industrial windows, and a lofted bedroom. You were able to afford it out of sheer luck. 
Some business tycoon's daughter was kidnaped. When you returned her safely he handed you a briefcase with hundreds of thousands in cash, refusing to take no for an answer. You felt dirty taking it but you were flat broke since starting college and the medical bills from your nightly activities were piling up. You were younger then— and desperate. 
Jack seemed amazed you were even feeling remorse for it at the time.
“You’ve saved this city how many times?!” he’d scold you. “I think you can have something for almost dying for the people of this town on a bi-weekly basis.”
Part of you agreed and part of you felt you were straying from the path— whatever that meant. Jack begged you to get something nice for yourself— so, you got this place and vowed never to take money for your job ever again. You fell in love as soon as you saw it. Your safe haven. Spider HQ, as Jack affectionately called it. 
Miguel had an entire tower, you could have more than a shoebox apartment.    
He was probably back at the tower now. You grab your watch and check the villain logs. Lyla kept a detailed list of who’d been captured and where. And there she was, right at the top. 
Fury the Goblin Queen: Earth-982
Status- Captured: Earth-727 at 2200 hours
He handled it. Nothing else to worry about. You let out a heavy sigh and peal off your suit, sports bra, and underwear. A scorching hot shower and some ibuprofen were calling your name. 
You’re about to climb the steps to your bathroom when you feel a slight tremble in the walls along with a buzzing in your head.
Again? Right now? You’re suddenly very aware of your complete nakedness and quickly grab one of your long abandoned t-shirts from a kitchen stool to cover up with. The baggy shirt barely brushed the tops of your thighs but it’ll have to do.
The golden portal formed in your living room, a still fully suited Miguel emerging from it. It closes behind him with a deep rumble.
“Thanks for waking all my neighbors up,” you pinch the bridge of your nose.
His mask fades away, revealing that stupid handsome face, “You didn’t follow.” he simply says.
“Didn’t have my watch. I won’t happen again.”
“You didn’t check in, either.”
“Didn’t think I needed to,” you groan, rubbing the back of your stinging neck, “I just got home after defusing the scene for 2 hours. Sorry if it slipped my mind.” The last part comes out more bitchy than you intend but you were fucking tired. And he comes to your home— To what? Berate you about protocol? Fuck off.
“Sorry, just wanted to make sure you were okay.” He says, earnestly. Okay, well now you do feel a little bit like a bitch. 
He could have just called or asked Lyla to check up on you, be he came himself. He was here, in your apartment. The realization makes your spider sense spike. 
He’s here and you're both alone.
“I’ve… never fought with you before,” He says, relaxing his posture, “You did good.”
“You too,” you say passively. You lean against the kitchen counter, letting the following silence linger into uncomfortable territory. What else was there to say? He came to make sure you were okay, the villains locked up and your dimension isn’t crumbling. Still, that dreaded sixth sense pulled at you to keep him here. Just a little longer, “Has it ever felt like that before?” you finally ask.
“Has what?” he furrows his eyebrows. 
“Fighting… with another spider,” You clarify, “When we were in the clearing— When she was throwing the bombs. The way we moved, it felt so—”
“Instinctual,” He finishes, taking a step toward you. “No, it’s never felt that way. It’s like you knew what to do. Like you knew what I was thinking.”
“Yeah,” You shy away from his gaze. You suddenly feel the gravity of it all. While you were grateful for the benefits of the spider sense, something was wrong with you. With both of you. This wasn’t a normal spider-sense. Whatever this was, was like a brick through the window of your daily life. Something was triggered in you, and you couldn’t turn it off. Now you’ll probably never be normal again— not that you really were before.
Everything felt perfect before. The city finally accepted you, a new job you were proud of, and new friends just like you. People that could understand in a way no one else could. You’d found a balance and a new passion for being Spider-Woman. Now, for the first time in years, you cursed your abilities. You doubted yourself. An outsider again, even amongst your own kind.
“Hey.” Miguel’s voice brings you out of the spiral. He’s standing directly in front of you. When did he get so close? “You okay, little spider?”
The nickname makes your cheeks flush.
“Yeah, I—” You stop yourself from rambling, bringing your hand up to your cheek “This is kinda fucked up, isn’t it? You and me?”
He snorts a small laugh, “Yeah, kinda.”
“Whatta we supposed to do, Miguel?” you ask yourself, more than him. Even if his test showed something, then what? Just learn to live with it, you suppose.
“Business as usual,” He reiterates from the other day in his room. Why did business as usual feel so difficult then? You’re not even sure what that means around him. A silence stirs between you two again, but this time you feel something building. Your mind screams at you to touch him. To let him take control and ravish you. You squeeze your legs together, doing your best to hide it even though it’s no use. If you felt it, he felt it too.
“I should go.” He finally says, voice barely above a whisper.
“Sure,” you nod. Neither of you moves. You see the hunger behind his brilliant red eyes.
You hesitantly reach out, running a hand up his broad chest. You needed something— Just a little of him. His breath hitches at the contact but he doesn’t shy away. His suit’s technology ripples in the wake of your touch, illuminating and fading away to show the rich, tan skin underneath— before phasing back in an instant. He grabs your wrist, halting your movement at his stomach. You can feel his heart rate rising under your touch.
He pulls you in, lips crashing in a frenzy of movement. You throw your arms over his shoulders as he pins you against the kitchen counter. His arms cage you in as his massive body overwhelms you.
Every move you make is feverish and desperate, begging for more of him. His tongue selfishly delves into your mouth and you moan at the taste of him. The sensation sends your head reeling. He bites at your lower lip before ghosting down to your neck. He was hungry— so were you.
Your head is spinning. All your pain and exhaustion now completely forgotten and replaced with pure, unbridled lust. The connection screams in gratitude, finally getting what it wanted.
“Miguel,” You sigh into his hair, as he leaves a trail of hickeys down your shoulder.
“I know,” He moans without halting his work, “ Lo sé. Yo también lo siento. ”
His bare hand snakes up your leg and hitches around the hem of your t-shirt. He pauses when he feels nothing else there. 
“How scandalous.” He smiles against your skin, running his calloused hand across your bare hips. You shiver in response, suddenly unable to articulate language. He cradles your head with his other hand as he buries his nose in your hair, “Oh god, you smell so—you’re so—”
He runs his open hand over your bare cunt. You gasp and arch into him, rolling your hips over his fingers. Greedily rocking back and forth against his rough hand, you coat his fingers with your growing arousal. He moves his hand gingerly as you do so. He gently runs his middle finger along your seam before thrusting it inside.
You swing your head back with a moan, clawing at his shoulders. He takes the opportunity to devour your neck again while working his hand in and out of you. You’re at his complete mercy. Whatever he wanted from you, he could have— you’d happily give it.
His mass threatens to topple you over the counter. You hook your leg around his hips, opening yourself to him more. You feel his entire body vibrate with a moan as his lips proceed to explore every single inch of you that they can. His thumb comes up to work against your clit and it sends you to a new level.
“P-please!” You gasp. You’re not entirely sure why you say it.
He pauses all of his movements, glowing red eyes meeting yours, “Please what?” it’s more of a demand than a question. 
Tell me what you want.
It takes a moment for your brain to catch up with your mouth, “Please fuck me.”
Then you see a shift in him. Like his eyes glaze over and somehow become more animalistic. It sets all of your hair on end and a new wave of arousal washing over your senses. 
His voice drops an octave, “Where’s—” 
“Upstairs.” you barely pant out, glancing up at your bedroom just above you. He follows your eyes, quickly taking the hint. 
“Okay, little spider. Okay,” he ever so slowly draws his fingers out from your slick heat. You whimper at the sensation. His hands trace over your soft thighs before hooking under them. He lifts you like nothing at all and your lips come crashing back to his. You entangle your limbs around him as he walks you both out of the kitchen and to the open living room. He doesn’t go towards the stairs though, instead walking to the opposite wall. Before you can correct him, his hands are off you— talons digging into your living room wall.
He scales the bricks as you cling to him, not stopping your hungry kissing for a single beat. His powerful limbs move under you with brute force but his torso still holds steady for you to carry yourself on. A small reminder of just how strong he was.
He hoists you both over the railing of your loft and carries you to the bed, dropping you into the messy, unmade sheets. His hand comes to the collar of your shirt, ripping it down the middle. You shrug off the shreds and briefly wonder if you’ll ever be able to do this without ruining any clothes.
He takes a moment to drink in your naked form, eyes slowly traveling down the curves of your body. You squirm under his gaze— Your breasts heaving up and down in anticipation. 
“Miguel,” you reach out to him.
Come here. Please.
His head twitches, eyes darting back to your face. His small trance broken, he smiles down at you. The edges of his suit start to fade away in a pale blue glow until there’s nothing left but a pair of black boxer briefs, his form silhouetted by the streetlights from the window. He hastily removes the underwear, freeing his throbbing hard cock. You drink him in, in all his glory. 
He trails his massive hands back up your thighs and over your torso as he crawls on top of you. His hands are scorching and rough. He pauses at your breasts, running his thumbs over each pebbled nipple. 
He takes one into his mouth, kneading the other roughly. You squirm under him, gasping at the contact. His cock twitches against your stomach. He seems to revel in it— watching you fall apart by his hand. You can’t say mind much either.
“Miguel, please,” You beg, pulling at his hair. He lazily comes off your breast, lulling his tongue over your nipple before rising completely.
“So impatient , ” he murmurs. He brings his hand down and runs his fingers through your wet folds, slowly gathering your arousal. He sits back, towering over you. He strokes his massive length, covering himself with you. His gaze burns into you as he puts on the show— small gasps escaping him with every stroke.
Look at what you do to me.
He crawls down your body. You bring your legs up from under him and hook them around his waist. He reaches down and guides his cock to your entrance. The blunt tip presses dauntingly against you and then you, only for a moment, worry you can’t take him— Then he rolls his hips forward. Your face contorts into a blissful silent scream as he begins stretching you to your limits.
“Oh god,” He moans as he slowly takes you inch by inch. He rolls his hips lightly before burying himself to the hilt. You’re legs are already quivering around him. “Relax for me.” He whispers into your ear.
He starts the pace slow, drawing out almost completely before rolling back in. Each dauntingly slow stroke of his cock was a wave of sensory overload. He had you stretched to near painful limits but with each steady thrust, it melted into pure pleasure, your body relaxing around him.
A little faster now, you start to roll your hips with him. Once your rhythm is set, he brings his starved mouth back down to yours. You moan into him, feeling it reverberate in both your chests. You consume each other greedily.
Your sense is singing in absolute ecstasy. 
It’s never felt this way before. You’d had a meager handful of lovers in your life, often leaving you wanting and disappointed— But this? This was something entirely different. Something so deep-rooted and primal. It scared you. It excited you. 
“ He pensado en esto durante tanto tiempo.” He murmurs into you, “ Te sientes asombrosa.”
You absolutely do not have the brain capacity to even attempt to understand him right now. Still, the way he so lovingly says it makes your heart swell.
“You sound like sin,” He grunts against your neck, “It’s fucking beautiful. Eres hermosa, mi arañita. ”
Your growing arousal makes you more vocal with each movement— the coil in your belly already tightening more and more. Your sinful screams bounce off the walls of your apartment and back to you.
He’s leaving a growing trail of marks across your shoulders, evidence that he’s been there. You can’t say that you disapprove of the reminder. He’s so vigorous in all of his movements with you, it was getting close to overwhelming. 
You’d thought of this— you’d dreamed about it for months now and he was incomparable to whatever you could have possibly imagined. Not just because his dick was proving to be something out of this world— well, you suppose it was—  but because it was just him. His smell, his sound, his taste— he overwhelmed your every sense as he made love to you. 
He hits something new and deep inside you, and you jump under him. He takes notice. Of course, he does. He devastatingly slams his hips forward into the same spot again. Electricity surges through you.
“Oh, that’s it, isn’t it? You like that?” He chuckles, thrusting into the same hypersensitive spot over and over. A few more thrust and it was your undoing. 
You can’t even warn him before it hits you like a freight train.
You claw down his back as your orgasm overtakes you. Limbs numbing and mind blacking out to nothingness for brief seconds, it was almost too much. Quivering beneath him, he works you through it. Each thrust extends your blinding pleasure just slightly longer before it subsides into maddening overstimulation. 
“Good Girl,” He moans against your ear, “S-so, fucking tight. So good.” 
He doesn’t slow his pace, continuing to fuck you through your prolonged high. He takes full advantage of it. You gasp for any air you can, every nerve in your body threatening to burn up in the euphoria.
“One more,” he grunts, “I know you have one more for me.”
He nuzzles into your neck, teeth bearing down on the soft flesh there. The pearl gleam of his fangs flashes in your mind, and you know you should be afraid— but you're not. The idea of him drawing blood is strangely pleasing. His tongue licks up along the reddened mark his teeth have left there.
Then he shifts you— untangling your legs from him and pulling your hips up off the bed. You plant your feet as he holds your shaky hips. He rises and starts to thrust down into you, bringing his fingers to your clit, and rubbing small circles over your already fried nerves. God, he looked fucking magnificent towering above you— His face pure lust. Eye’s lidded and glossy, sweat pecking at his brow.
You grasp at the sheets, trying to find any sense of stability. Another wave is washing over you, “M-Miguel. Miguel, I’m gonna—”
It rips through you quicker than your first, but no less powerful. Your voice catches in your throat as you gasp for air, eyes rolling to the back of your head. 
“That’s it. That’s it,” he chants as crawls back over you, pulling you closer, “Fuck, you feel so good when you—”
His steady pace becomes sporadic as he chases his own relief. You feel his hips start to quake and his eyes go completely red.
“W-where?” he gasps.
“God— inside!” you scream impatiently. You can inform him of your birth control after, though he seems to take the hint.
He cums with a string of grunts uttered into the sheets next to your head, hips shuttering still as he pushes as deep inside you as you can. You feel him throbbing against your walls as he fills you. Every muscle in his body is quivering and tense and then… he relaxes completely. You hold him close, arms and legs wrapping around him. You bury your nose in the nape of his neck, memorizing his musky scent.
You both stay there for what felt like hours, in unmoving silence. Breathing each other’s heavy air, clinging to the other’s body. Truth be told, it was probably less than a minute, but it stretched on for eternity. 
He’s the first to move, rising up to rest his sweaty forehead against yours, “Holy shit.”
How romantic. But that pretty much summed up your feelings too. 
“Holy shit.” you chuckle lightly in agreement. You notice while coming down from your sexual high your spider sense has also been tamed into silence yet again. That was to be expected but there was something else this time. A new level of satisfaction. You can’t help but wonder what it’s like on his end, “What’s it feel like... For you?”
“It’s…Peaceful. Satiated and content.” he says, rolling onto his side. Your breath hitches at the loss of him. “It felt satisfied before when we… but now…”
“It’s different.” You finish his line of thought. It was vague and incredibly obvious, but how else could you possibly describe a sensation you’d never felt before? Yeah, it was different, but how? You just simply didn’t have the words— not yet. 
It was everything and nothing you’d ever known before. He made you feel that way.
“Will you stay?” you find yourself saying before you can stop yourself. He’s obviously taken aback.
“I don’t—”
“Just- just for a little while.” You quickly try to backtrack a little. It feels needy and clingy but you feel like if he left you’d be lying awake for hours with your spider sense screaming at you. Just hold you for a little while? Is that so much to ask? You’re worried you just massively overstepped a boundary… but then his expression softens into a faint smile.
“Sure, little spider. For a little while.”

Day 5, Prompt 1 of @tamlinweek: Shapeshifter
Notes: I've already written a couple of Shapeshifter-Faerie Tamlin scenes, so I wanted to see if I could put a twist to the prompt. So, welcome to Pacific Rim!AU ACOTAR. This fic is ongoing and multi-ship.
I'll probably put the masquerade prompt in this fic, too. Trust the process 👌
Read Courting the Apocalypse on AO3 or below the cut.
THE FIRST ATTACK
They came out of nowhere—somewhere deep in the sea, a place no one could follow.
The first attack happened in Australia, on the coast, and before long the massive creature was dragging itself into the city, destroying the lives of thousands. It had taken five days for the air force to take it down, in tandem with the military, and any other goddamn fighting force at our disposal. But the damage was done.
We called these creatures kaiju.
And that first guy? That first big, ugly, fucker? We called him Hybern—a level one kaiju that came back after the winter. We thought we had him, but whatever death we saw was a retreat. He waited, recuperated and hibernated until it popped up on our sensors again.
After the first attack, we knew we needed to change. We need to get bigger, faster, stronger. We needed to defy what we were in physicality by using what set us apart as the dominant species of this planet—our brilliance. We were no longer at the top of the food chain, but not for long.
And that is how the Jaeger program was born.
Giant mech suits that allowed us to change our shape and meet those things on a level playing field. We were knights—fuck, we were goddamn superheroes. We were anything but helpless little humans once the world came together and started sharing all their innovations, coming together against a single enemy. We could be whatever we wanted, fight in whatever way felt right. Plasma guns? Check. Swords? Check. Rocket launchers? Hell yeah.
But it wasn’t always good, and it wasn’t always shit.
My father was a part of the initial Jaeger Program, and he was the commander of Western Shatterdome of the Pan-Pacific Defense Force. My brothers were rockstars. They were the first dual pilot-team—the first soldiers who were able to set aside their hangups, their wants and needs, and blend into one another as one. They became our cause, and they became everything we needed.
Until me and my co-pilot killed them.
PRESENT DAY
“You need a new partner.”
“No.”
“Tam, will you slow down.”
“No.”
The auburn-haired soldier jogs beside his friend until he can stand his way; he can barely get Tamlin to stop, and much less look at him. A thick white bandage covers his eye, and Lucien knows that’s exactly why his friend won’t look at him. He sighs, trying to catch his gaze.
“It wasn’t your fault. None of it was. Not this, not what happened back then. If that’s what’s stopping you—”
“It’s not.” Tamlin snaps, looking at the metal walls of the hallway. The shatterdome isn’t made for comfort, it’s cold, utilitarian efficiency. Right now, it’s a lot more comforting than the warmth (and forgiveness) Lucien is offering him. “I’m done.”
After two partners, both of which that ended in some kind of tragedy, Tamlin gets the message. He’s not made for this fucking life. He can’t keep his partner safe, and he sure as hell can’t help his other teammates. What? Lucien doesn’t think he knows what they say about him? The PPDC are a superstitious bunch; the rangers have their rituals, and he wouldn’t be surprised that on their next deployment, if they manage to coerce him to get into one of those godforsaken machines again, they’d steer clear of him. Bad luck is contagious.
“Just go see. Andras found her manning an abandoned model two alone. Do you know how insane that is? Do you know who the only other pilot is who did that successfully? Will you,” Lucien snaps, grabbing Tamlin’s face to look at him. “It’s not your fault. I’ve been in your head. I know that you’re beating yourself up over guilt that doesn’t belong to you. I knew what I was in for signing up for this shit.”
His amber eyes search Tamlin’s emerald ones, finding all the grief he wishes wasn’t there. Lucien sighs, shoulders slouching.
He remembers the first time he jumped into Tamlin’s head—the fear and the anger had been so overwhelming. More importantly, the desperate cry to keep others out of his head was deafening. Lucien wonders if he’s the one that’s in the wrong, if he’s asking Tamlin to sacrifice himself for ‘the cause’.
“There’s so few of us left,” he says softly. Pilot compatibility has dropped over the years. Hell, there isn’t even enough people to test. The war against these monsters has worn hope down. “Someone has to believe in the PPDC. If it could be me, you know I’d free you.”
“If it’s not you, I’m not doing it,” Tamlin says softly. “We are one.” He shaped himself to Lucien—he slotted himself against his heart and mind. To abandon Lucien is to abandon a part of himself. It has to be him.
But it can’t. The second Lucien steps into the Drift, he’ll rob both of them of their left peripheral view. He knows they could adapt; he knows that Tamlin is so damn stubborn, he’d give Lucien his sight back like a healing, avenging angel. Pair that weight along with the responsibility Tamlin feels for Lucien, he’d be taking too much of the mental load. It’s a risk that he can’t take.
Lucien pulls Tamlin close, pressing their forehads together. “Just because I’m not in there with you, doesn’t mean I won’t be there with you.”
Tamlin eases at his touch, and listens. He closes his eyes, latching onto that familiar voice that’s lived in his mind for years.
“I’ve asked for a transfer to LOCCENT. I might not be in your head, but I’ll be in your ear.” Lucien grins.
“What?" You’ve been planning this the whole time?”
“Yeah? Do I look like a quitter to you?”
No, Lucien doesn’t quit. Lucien is a fighter, through and through. To think, they’d sold Lucien to Tamlin as the failure of a legacy family, just like he was. To think, they’d made the best team—brain and brawn.
“Fine, I’ll go see her.”
“Good man,” Lucien pats Tamlin’s cheek, affectionately. His smile falters, as his hand slips to Tamlin’s shoulder. “I need you to know. He’ll be there. He’s still looking for a partner.”
Well, fuck.

“Whoa, slow down!” Chaewon exclaimed, as you downed your fifth shot in the past 20 minutes. “Are you trying to book a bed next to Yeonjun or something?”
“Chae, that’s not funny.” You deadpanned, as she shrugged off your seriousness, giggling to herself.
The two of you are currently in Chaewon’s apartment having a ‘well needed girls night’, as she would call it. You’re wearing your most comfy pjs as you both lounged on the floor in front of her coffee table that is currently covered with a variety of snacks, fried food, fried chicken and bottles of fresh soju. The tv is on but you both are too engrossed in your own conversation to pay the noise machine any mind.
“So, are you going to tell me what’s been going on or do I have to wait for your drunk mind to spill everything?” She raised an eyebrow at you as you downed another shot, the bitter taste of soju stinging your throat. 
“I don’t know what you’re talking about.” You waved her off, popping another piece of fried chicken in your mouth to take away the aftertaste of the soju. 
“Are you really going to play dumb like that?” When you didn’t say anything she reached out to smack you on the arm. “Come on. I’m serious. I know there’s been a lot going on that you aren’t telling me. So spill.”
“Okay! Okay, you didn’t have to hit me.” You pouted at her while rubbing your arm to get her pity.
“So, get on with it. Tell me!” She squealed with sparkling doe eyes. She reached out for a bag of chips in preparation of the juicy story she is expecting you to tell. However…
“There’s not much to tell honestly. Heeseung and I have been hanging out when he has time and that’s it.” You brushed her off, pulling all your attention to the bottle in your hand.
“That’s it?” She scoffed, not believing you. “Oh come on. There has to be more.”
“Look, I don’t know what you want me to say.” You said, taking a swig out of the bottle. Who needs glasses anyways?
“I want you to tell me how you feel about him and don’t give me the usual bullshit either. After everything that’s happened, there’s no way you guys are just friends.” She crossed her arms, staring at you with determined eyes.
“It’s complicated…” You sighed, downing the rest of the bottle before wiping your mouth with the back of your hand. “I do like him, but I know better than to expect anything more out of what we have going on right now.”
“What do you mean? He’s literally in love with you. I don’t know how you can’t expect anything more.” She questioned, tilting her head to the side slightly.
“He’s an Idol, Chae. He can’t date. So we can’t date. So we can’t like each other. End of story.” You reached out for another bottle but Chaewon was faster and grabbed it before you could. You stared at her for a second before reaching for a different bottle. She rolled her eyes at you as you opened it with ease and started downing this one too.
“Y/n, I love you but I’m going to be real with you for a minute because I think you need to hear it right now.” She took in a deep breath before continuing. “You’re so fucking stubborn it’s actually driving me insane. You love him. He loves you.” You raise your hand to interrupt but she cuts you off. “Heeseung does care about his career and his members but he also cares about you too. He doesn’t want to lose you again and you’re making it very difficult for him to push that fear away.”
“But that’s the problem! He can’t have both me and a career! It’s not possible and I don’t want him to choose. So I made the choice for him.” You yelled back a little stronger than you meant to. “Sorry.” You said, drinking more, even though you feel like you’re starting to see doubles.
“Sweetie, don’t you think it’s also important to hear him out too? Hear what he has to say about all of this? Yes, you’re entitled to your opinions and at the end of the day you should do what you think is best but I don’t think you should make that decision until you hear his side. He told me that his biggest regret was letting you walk away from him back when you two were in high school and I know you regret walking away too, even if you try to tell yourself otherwise. So don’t let this be just another regret that you’ll add to this list.” Chaewon reaches over to remove the bottle from your grasp, grabbing your hand in the process and squeezing it slightly just to let you know that she was still on your side even though it didn’t seem like it.
“I’m scared, Chae.” You whispered, tears filling up your eyes. “What if we get back together and the press finds out and his career is over? What if that happens and he starts to resent me? What am I supposed to do then? I don’t have a plan for that. I don’t want to have a plan for that.”
“Oh sweetie, a dating scandal isn’t the end of the world. They won’t kick him out just because of it.” She pulled you into a hug to soothe your aching heart. 
“You don’t know that. Others have been kicked out of their companies for it.” You sniffled as you angrily wiped the tears from your cheeks.
“Yes, but there are also idols who are happily married with kids too. You just never know until you try. You can’t let the what ifs control your life and you can’t let these fears make all of your decisions for you.” She continued to rub soothing circles on your back as you cried harder. “Besides, you guys have been sneaking around for a few weeks and no one has caught you yet.”
“It’s because we don’t go outside.” You giggled. “We’re always either at his dorm or my apartment. How can they catch us if we don’t even leave the house?”
“Exactly! If you want to, you can make it work. Love will always find a way!” She beamed.
“I know it's going to sound so selfish but, after everything that happened with Yeonjun, I just want a normal relationship for once. I don’t want to keep sneaking around and constantly having to look over my shoulder everytime we’re together because I’m scared someone will recognize him. I want to be able to go on cute dates and not have to worry about anything. I want to walk down the street holding hands and not end up on the front cover of dispatch. Why does the universe hate me?” You pouted, feeling the burning of the alcohol settling in your stomach as it starts to spread through your whole body. Your limbs start to feel slightly numb and your heart starts to open up more.
“It’s either you get Heeseung and all that he comes with or have a normal relationship with someone else. But you can’t have both.” Chaewon giggled, as you pushed her away with a scoff. “Besides, what’s a normal relationship nowadays anyways. Normal is so overrated.”
“I don’t know. I just feel a little lost. Ever since I was a child, my parents have always told me that you can’t go through life without a plan. I was always able to see at least the next 5 to 10 years of my life in front of me. I was supposed to finish college, get a good job, get married, and have kids before I turn 35. But look at my life now. It’s a mess and I can’t do anything to fix it. And I hate to say it but getting together with Heeseung will only make my life more unpredictable, if that’s possible. So I’m scared.” You admitted.
“Honey, I hate to break it to you but you can’t look at your life like it’s a planner that was written with permanent ink. You just gotta go with the flow. You’re always so strict on yourself with your plans and goals, but maybe this is the time for you to just live by feeling. When was the last time you’ve done that? Do what your heart wants and not what your head is telling you. Who knows, maybe you’ll thank me later at your wedding. Which can still happen before you turn 35, by the way.” She teased as you threw a piece of french fry at her. She giggled as she picked up another piece to pop in her mouth. Chaewon’s phone suddenly started ringing and she excused herself to take the call. Leaving you alone in the living room.
“What am I going to do with her?” You asked out loud. As you thought about what she said, you didn’t know if it was the alcohol in your system or what but your hand reached out for your phone and pulled up Heeseung’s chat. You started scrolling back through your conversations over the past few weeks and giggling at the random jokes he would send you throughout the day. He really was trying so hard to be included in your life and you found yourself anticipating his messages every day. You don’t know what you would do if he disappeared again. 
“Y/n, I think I’m drunk. I’m heading to bed first.” Chaewon said, poking her head out from behind her bedroom door.
“Okay, I’ll clean up a bit and head to bed too.” You smiled at her as she disappeared from behind the door. You started to gather the items scattered across the floor into the plastic bag beside you, but as you got up, a wave of dizziness hit you, making you fall backwards onto the sofa. Maybe I’m more drunk than I realize. You thought, clutching your head in between your palms. 
You laid there for a minute before pulling out your phone again. Heeseung’s profile was still open on the screen. As your finger hovered over the call button, you took a deep breath. Follow my heart. You thought as you pressed down on the screen. The dial tone instantly makes your heart rush and before you can regret your decision, you hear Heeseung’s sleepy voice through the phone.
“Y/n? Are you okay?” He whispered.
“Yeah… I’m fine.” You squeaked, biting down on your bottom lip.
“Are you sure? Why are you still up, it’s 2am?” He questioned, sounding a little more awake now.
“Oh! I’m sowwy.” You giggled. “I didn’t realize it was so late. I just wanted to hear your voice.” You gasped, mentally smacked yourself for letting the last part slip.
“Oh?” He chuckled. “What were you up to?”
“Chaewon and I were having a girls night. So we bought snacks and ordered chicken and had some soju while chatting about random stuff.” You slurred slightly, sitting up and leaning back on the side of the couch to get comfortable.
“How much did you drink?” He questioned. Sounds of shuffling were heard as he moved around in his bed.
“Just a few bottles. I don’t know if it was the brand or what but it tasted extra bitter today. Even the chicken wasn’t helping to mask the taste.” You giggled, the alcohol making you sway slightly.
“Well sounds like it’s time for bed then.” He said softly.
“Are you hanging up? I don’t want you to go yet.” You pouted, even though he couldn’t see.
“No, not if you don’t want me to. How about you go get a big glass of water and drink that while we talk?” You hummed in agreement as you stumbled slightly on your way to the kitchen.
“Okay! I’m getting water now.” You said, putting the phone in between your shoulder and ear to pour your glass of water.
“Good. So what did you guys talk about?” He asked.
“Just about life.” You paused to drink your water. “And you.”
“Me? What were you guys talking about me for?” He questioned, voice raising an octave in surprise.
“I don’t know. I guess I just miss you, that's all.” You shrugged, your mind was foggy from the drinks so your heart is now in control.
“Y/n, you can’t say stuff like that.” He whined as more shuffling was heard.
“Why not?” You questioned in between your water intake. “I’m just being honest.”
“Because it’s making my heart flutter.” He answered honestly.
“What if I want your heart to flutter?” You asked boldly, making your way over to the couch again. Suddenly it was very hard to stand on your own two feet.
“Y/n, you know that I like you and I can respect your decision not to pursue anything further but please don’t mess with me like this.” He whined, running a hand through his already messy hair.
“But I like you too.” You giggled, enjoying his whining sounds.
“Please, stop. My heart is going to explode.” He groaned, pressing his face into his pillow to stop the smile that’s spreading across his face.
“I like you, Heeseung.” You giggled, sounding like a schoolgirl in love.
“Are you drunk?” He raised a brow even though you couldn’t see.
“Maybe…” You trailed off. “But it's the truth! I do like you. A lot actually.” 
“Where are you right now?” He asked urgently.
“I’m at Chaewon’s place.Why?” You tilted your head in curiosity as you waited for him to continue. 
“I’m coming over.” He said as more shuffling was heard.
“No! Wait! I think Chaewon might’ve already gone to bed and I think I’m about to crash on this couch too. So, you should come over tomorrow.” You counter offered. Rubbing your temples to help ease the headache that was slowly forming.
“But I want to see you right now.” He whined for the umpteenth time. 
“Heeseung please. It’s already so late and I don’t want you to get in trouble” You argued.
“I don’t care. I need to see you right now.” A jingle of keys were heard. “Ow. I’m fine! Just hit my foot on the door.”
“Hyung? Where are you going?” Jay’s voice was heard through the phone.
“I’m going to see Y/n.” Heeseung responded.
“It’s almost 3am. Manager Hyung will kill you if he finds out you’re trying to go see your girlfriend at 3am!” Jay whisper yelled.
“First of all, she’s not my girlfriend. Yet.” He giggled. “Second of all, he can’t kill me if he doesn’t know, so shut it.”
“But hyung!” Jay whined.
“Hee, I really think you should come over tomorrow.” You said, bringing his attention back on you.
“But-”
“Heeseung, no.” You cut him off as you heard Jay chuckle in the background, clearly enjoying this.
“I’ll see you for a second then I’ll leave”
“No.”
“But-”
“Tomorrow.” You deadpanned.
“Fine.” He sighed in defeat as you heard him shuffle to take off his jacket and put his keys down.
“Damn, hyung you’re whipped.” Jay snickered, as Heeseung glared at the younger boy.
“Go back to bed!” Heeseung huffed as you heard more shuffling and a closing of a door.
“I’m sorry but I think it’s for the best.” You tried to reassure him.
“Yeah, yeah I know.” He pouted. “I still miss you though.”
“I miss you too. I’ll see you tomorrow.”
“Promise?”
“I promise.”
“Okay, good.”
“Goodnight, Hee.”
“Goodnight, my love.”

SIDE ORDER THOUGHTS
I beat Side Order last night after 3-5 runs and after sleeping on it here are my thoughts (spoilers ahead)
The first ten floors (inital tower) is insane. Not only does it serve as a good tutorial but the dialog and tension is such a good hook
When I got to the first boss, I didn't look to closely and just thought "oh we're fighting Octavio again as the first boss? He's here? OK cool" it was infact NOT Octavio lol. I even took a screen shot before the boss fight and looking at it, yeah definitely not Octavio lol
Honestly so glad the Marina wasn't the main villain, and I'm glad she tags along in the elevator
Speaking of Marina, her and Pearl are so in love here. Like I shipped them before but now with their dialog, the dev diary, even Marina's computer screen being Pearl, they're so canon
Shipping aside, honestly think that the dialog is one of the strongest aspects of this mode as we learn more about the memverse and the character dynamics
I also love Acht, no need to further explain, they're just so cool
Person who's only rouge like experience is hades: man, this is just like hades! (This is a joke, I only said that on vending machine levels)
The levels themselves are fun, all be a bit repetitive at times. It is a rouge like but there 4 different level types (minus bosses) and limited floor design, then again, I've only played 3-5 runs and half of that was with Agent 4's pallet
A little disappointed that agent 4 didn't show up in the flesh but I'm a firm believer that Parallel Canon is supposed to be clones of them because of the matching hair styles with your own and with the completed pallet of 4, Order mentioned that Marina wanted 4 to be security for the memverse so I'm taking those crumbs
Also kinda disappointed that we didn't get more Off the Hook and Dedf1sh songs but the ones we got were good. I like how ebb and flow is kinda like Off the Hook's equivalent of Calimari Inkantation lol
Continuing with music, I like the music but felt like I didn't get to appreciate as much because I was so focused on the level (this is a me thing but still)
Order is a cool villian, bit generic but still cool, I like how his boss fight was foreshadowed as a locker item (it's an in universe Switch game, I forget what's it's called)
In the last phase of Order's boss fight, I got splatted a few times and luckily there wasn't life count so it just gave the option to continue or give up and every time I hit continue I thought "omori did not succumb, agent 8 did not succumb" lol
The credits were beautiful
This is probably the first splatoon story that I'll aim for 100% because there is still a lot to know and learn
Inkopolis Square as a reward was predicted but welcomed, it's really cool to see what has been built up since Splat2
ISO PADRE IS HERE, HE'S FREE, MY MAN IS FREEEEE!!!!!!!!!
A little disappointed that the grate the originally lead to Splat2's story mode is just covered a manhole cover unlike in the plaza but that's just a nickpick on my end
Shout out to that one octoling beside the claw machine saying they miss squid beats, we all do
Honestly still shocked at how fast I beat Side Order lol
Overall, I enjoyed Side Order. Personally, it was a bit underwhelming but I'm satisfied. Like I said, I'll probably be trying for 100% cause the dev diarys, pallets and collectables but for what's it's worth, it's good

airplanes
you had always hated airplanes. you lived right near an airport all your life, so the blaring takeoffs and arrivals would never stop bothering you, even when it all became white noise over the years. sometimes though, once in a while, you‘d just sit there and listen on days when you were sad, letting the familiar sounds comfort you and lull you to sleep, silencing your thoughts with their wings.
and now you miss their sounds, you miss seeing them more than ever, you miss even living near that damn airport.
you stare out the window, hoping that at least you would see one of those machines you used to hate so much flying above you. at least then, you’d be able to remember the outside world, how your life used to be...before all of this happened. at least then, you could temporarily escape from the cold, harsh reality of the cold walls that surround you, the walls he’s trapped you in, escape from thoughts of giving into him, escape from the deafening silence that reminded you you weren’t home any longer.
the sky’s the same as it’s always been. that peaceful blue taunts you of the freedom you once had now that you can only see it through a window, the absence of clouds and airplanes mocking your desire for their presence.
“can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars?”
you remember that song so clearly. you never stop playing it in your head, like your last hope of sanity. “i could really use a wish right now, wish right now, wish right now,” you sing quietly the next lyric to yourself as you hope for an airplane today, for its loud roar to give yourself peace of mind for once, for even just a glimpse of it to appear before you and ruin the unsettling peacefulness of the sky.
and then it happens.
you sit up and notice that white winged mechanical thing interrupt that blue color you’ve grown to detest like a smudge in a picture-perfect painting. the noise isn’t there, but it’s a familiar sight. immediately you close your eyes and press your palms together, wishing, praying for your old life back, praying for your old self back, letting the good memories before him run through your mind.
and somehow, a light rains down on you, basking you in its warmth, and your heart soars. just maybe, maybe you’d be able to go back—
“baby, what are you doing by the window again? more importantly, where’s my hug?” your eyes pop open and see him, the cause of your misery, the thief of your freedom. you didn’t even hear the locks rattle, the door open. was that light from the ones on his car...? the doom you’ve been dreading sinks in heavily, somehow perfectly into place, as if you’ve expected it from the beginning...you must have expected it.
he looks at you expectantly, arms spread, waiting for you to dive into them with that dreamy warm smile on his lips. “welcome home, chan,” you say quietly, your eyes flickering back to the sky before you get up from your seat and slowly wrap your arms around him.
“glad to be back, darling.” he pulls you closer and kisses your forehead with an unrivaled tenderness. even after all he’s done, he’s still so unbearably dreamy. “i love you so, so much.”
your eyes fall on the numerous locks on the door behind him, then at the empty blue sky outside the window, before you return your gaze to him.
you wished you wished on all those airplanes back then...you can’t even wish on a shooting star because you’re never allowed out of his arms at nighttime. it’s too late, it’s over. there are no airplanes to take you out of here, no airplanes to grant you wishes, no airplanes to keep you holding onto hope. it’s been months that you’ve been cooped up in here, and you know, the only way you could escape from your insanity now is through dreams...even if that dream is the one who caused it in the first place.
he’s waiting for you patiently, and you know that he knows. he knows that you know it’s inevitable at this point. there’s a triumph in the slight curve of his lips when you finally say the magic words.
“i love you too, chan.”

note: first drabble! i hope it makes sense, lol. inspired by the song “airplanes” by b.o.b. (feat. hayley williams). also, if you saw this before, i’m reposting cuz my tags didn’t work for some reason. hopefully they do now, sorry for the spam :(

Welcome to all the sides of the Hollow Knight fandom. I'm glad you met them both and now you know how insane some people go to the extents of the "child headcanon". Tbh, this is why I don't like the headcanon at all. Like, both sides have good points but I personally see it as a bad thing for a race of forever disabled gods. So I just hate headcanoning the small vessels as children mentally cause I hate seeing them infantalized. Like. At all. Don't agree with the NSFW works of them of course, but you get the idea of what I'm going for.
I mean I still don't like the headcanon that they're mentally an adult, bc it takes a lot of the fun and tragedy out of it for me. Part of the appeal of Hollow Knight for me is that heavily tragic element of 'they were children/they never got a life' where Ghost and Hollow are on two sides of the same coin of their childhood being stolen away- Hollow was raised as machine to be sacrificed for war, while Ghost never got to grow up. Reading them as mentally an adult and physically a child reduces that quite a bit. That doesn't mean that it's not a take that you can have, but personally for me I dislike it because unless you're specifically playing from the angle of horror, it reduces Ghost to Just Another Silent Protagonist. And the horror element also doesn't appeal to me much bc I already have to live with that shit anyways. Doesn't mean it's bad, but it means that I have two pretty big reasons to not wanna work with it.
Then again, I also don't see them as forever disabled or incapable of growth, I just think that Hollow grew because they were in favorable conditions and Ghost is stunted because they were out there in buttfuck nowhere for who knows how long (this is a phenomena that actually happens in insects). BV, for example, def. grew a bit, and while the headcanon that they were a prototype pure vessel is relatively common, there's no hard canonical proof of it, so it's very possible they simply grew because they remained in Hallownest while Ghost ventured out of it. Ghost going into the Wastes is also why I hc that they're still mentally a child, because the Wastes do have a mind-erasing effect when exposed long enough, so they kept getting swept back to square 1. BV, on the other hand, acts like a young adult despite physically being a young teenager. As for the other vessels found around Hallownest, those I write as children still bc they're all fucking dead. no development was allowed to happen.
I'd also like to note that infantilization of children is also kind of a problem that needs to be addressed rather than sidestepped. Like don't get me wrong, kids are, well...kids, but children above 7 or so are basically like little adults that lack experience and a fully developed brain. They're not stupid, they just lack the life experience to successfully solve most problems and have brains that aren't fully developed in the logic or emotional processing unit yet. People have a really bad habit of treating all kids like they're babies that don't know anything or can't have strong opinions/problem solving skills, even though they very much do have quite a bit of personal agency (which unfortunately is only ever revealed in neglect situations). That's why I write Ghost as basically a very serious 11 year old; they can fend for themselves and have a pretty good idea of what's going on around them, but they lack the refinement, experience, and restraint that their older siblings do. Sure, most 11 year olds aren't capable of carrying out what Ghost did, but there isn't really anything in Hallownest that an 11 year old couldn't figure out how to get past either. Children in neglectful and abusive situations have to navigate dangerous shit and fend for themselves all the time, it's just that Ghost's issues are on the inhuman and divine level rather than most others

Misc: When I Became as Join Fandoms
September 15 is the 7th Anniversary of My DeviantArt Account and Art Life on Social Media! But it’s late for now…
When I join fandom at TV, video games, and series. As a story of truth.
Tumblr media
Active Fandoms Mixels - Before I created an account on DeviantArt, I watched Log Loss in March 2015, then I watched more episodes on YouTube. I looked at drawings made by the person who created Sharkitty and deactivated the account after canceling the show on DeviantArt, then I looked at the drawings which were amazing looking horror and spooky as I liked it while I chose for my favorite character is Dribbal. I became a fan of Mixels when I created my account on DeviantArt when I was 13 already.
Luigi's Mansion Series - On November 2019, I looks the arts as the person who has an accounts on DeviantArt and Tumblr as possibly former fan of Mixels when I looked drawings before I created an account, also I looks fanfiction of series with headcanon as I officially love that as before and during at my birthday as my favorite characters are Dr. Potter, Steward, and Morty. I became a fan of Luigi's Mansion Series while I watched videos on YouTube for the whole story mode and made my fanfiction of that.
Cuphead Series - After I looked arts of Bendy Series on DeviantArt and Tumblr, I looks comics on DeviantArt in Late November/Early December 2018 which story of two of characters with heartwarming relationship like a parent and child on game as headcanon which started favorite to two characters are Dr. Kahl and his Robot and fan comic story become my favorite as it is called Dr. Kahl's Journal. I became a fan of the Cuphead Series while I had the idea of headcanon and looked at drawings on DeviantArt.
Bendy Series - I listened and watched Build My Machine by Will/DAGames at Late February/Early March 2017, I listened to the voices of employees of JDS even Will who voiced Grant Cohen which he's my favorite along with Edgar and Wally Frank. I became a fan of the Bendy Series while I listened to fan songs by Bendy Fans and audio logs on YouTube.
Balan Wonderworld - I noticed a drawing on DeviantArt in April 2021 as it was made by a person as I already know and became my favorite when after I watched it on YouTube, name is Cal Suresh. I listened soundtracks of game are amazing which I become love of a music. I became a fan of Balan Wonderworld while I listened to songs to draw and write.
No Straight Roads - I'm officially surprised to look at many art for the 1st anniversary of the game on Twitter. Eventually in November 2021, I looked at arts and stories on Tumblr from one of my social media friends, then I watched videos about NSR voice actors hanging out and playing games. During livestream, the fans draw characters doing same for their voice actors which I officially liked that especially Zul (Neon J and 1010 Voice Actor) doing Moose God and going insane anytime as quickly caught to Christmas Edition to Neon J and 1010 made a reindeer soldiers, it made me highly excited to them as became favorite. I became a fan of No Straight Roads while I listened to songs and videos as I drew and wrote about Neon J and 1010, and looked at the drawings.
Brawl Stars - Downloaded it during Season 11: Biodome to try it but uninstalled it in one week as I had all of the Rare Brawlers and almost Super Rare Brawlers. In December 2022, I reinstalled it for the anniversary of the game to free Gray and free skin to Shelly while one of my social media friends told me about Brawl Stars which drained my boredom to happiness while I watched videos by official Brawl Stars on YouTube as my favorite is Mortis, the most played of the game. I became a fan of Brawl Stars while I watched videos about Season 3 as lore, listened to the songs, and looked at drawings on Twitter as I started to get an idea and I started playing the game everyday.
Welcome Home - I quickly noticed the arts on Twitter at Late March 2023/Early April 2023 which made me to get idea as my favorite is Howdy Pillar, I looks at Frank and Eddie in love as it officially by the creator, then I looks some art of Frank and Eddie love to Howdy as start poly love relationship by some fans as it became my favorite ship. I became a fan of Welcome Home while I looked at art for my favorite character and ship and looked at the website.
Inactive Fandoms My Singing Monsters Series - I watched Tribal Island Trailer in January 2016 as I downloaded it as I became a fan of My Singing Monsters Series, then I've many ideas about monsters after creating my account. But November 2020, I got bored and ran out of ideas, I started to be inactive as I never used to when I’ve got to focus on old fandoms as I enjoy My Singing Monsters Series as I listen to the songs.
Object Shows - I watched BFDI and Inanimate Insanity when I was a child as I became a fan of Object Shows in January 2018 to draw my characters as my own show. But January 2021, I started to be inactive as I never used to when I’m back to Mixels to make the story and characters as I enjoy Object Shows.
Just Shapes and Beats - I watched it on YouTube in June 2018 as I listened to the songs from past years to look level in the game, then I became a fan of Just Shapes and Beats in July 2019 to draw characters based on songs and levels as bosses. But October 2020, I started to be inactive as I never used to when I ran out of an idea and focused on Mixels as reactive as I enjoy Just Shapes and Beats.
Cookie Run Series - I watched it on YouTube and then downloaded while I looked at drawings at DeviantArt and Tumblr in February 2021 as I was playing it 2021 to Early 2023 which made me grow bored as I ran out of ideas for other fandoms. But March 2023, I’m already bored of it as a big problem with my phone, I uninstalled it for large memories and started to be inactive as I never used to when I finally escaped from boredom as I played Brawl Stars and focused on writing fanfiction as I enjoy Cookie Run.
Occasion Fandoms Team Fortress 2 (July 2014) Gravity Falls (July 2015) Total Drama Series (August 2018) Rainbow Friends (Mid August 2022) Alphabet Lore/Number Lore (Early September 2022) Cult of the Lamb (Mid September 2022) Garten of Banban (March 2023)

Ayo this you??
Tumblr media
Context uH
A friend threw me into the uni discord and I was looking around to see if someone played Rain World (no results D:) BUT then your thingo came up ultrakill and I was like..mmm close enough
And then your only post was a Tumblr link
And the cogs in my brain were turning real hard and It took so much scrolling to find that video on the tag but LiKe
Hello???? You like robot??? Machine??? Have you heard of Rain World?? Massive city sized semi-organic supercomputer???
Tumblr media
^^^ Live footage of me reading this ask on a tumblr break from my work
...Needless to say I'm never posting a tumblr embed in a discord server again ^^;
but yeah. hi! What I post on this blog stays here, no one outside of here and my immediate friend group knows about my little weirdo blog, welcome to the club! wahhahsdhshsasah
I've never heard of Rain World up until now! I did mayhaps. took a little peak through your blog. and looked at the steam page for the game and it definitely looks right up my alley, I don't know why I hadn't heard about it up until now!
I'll definitely have to check it out at some point! I'm trying (and failing miserably) to save towards smth right now, so mayhaps after the term ends ^^;
Thanks for the (Insane, I was literally sitting in the library head on hands after reading it) ask!

SCREWBALL DYNAMICS + HEADCANONS (Jeanette x Toby)
SFW EDITION :] <33
Warnings- mentions of Tourette’s, DID, swearing, possessiveness, stalking, arguing, suicide, and alcohol+drugs, also murder duh
FLUFF
•when Jeanette and Toby first met, Jeanette wasn’t too sure about him at first. Like most people she met, she always tried not to get too attached. However, Toby made it very hard. He’d always greet her, make conversation about anything he could, be playful and warm towards her, it was hard to stay away from such a welcoming personality.
•The first mission they went on, they worked extremely well together. Even if it wasn’t the hardest task in the world, they worked like freshly oiled gears in a machine together.
•Toby was always so flustered around Jeanette, but did his best to play it off. Let me tell you, this boy was and is a fuckin SIIIIIIIIMP. He will bend over backwards and break himself into pieces for this girl. He will do anything just to see her smile. *good fucking luck buddy, cus that’s a rare sight to see-*
•Once Jeanette starting getting feelings for Toby, she was very conflicted about it. She didn’t even want to be acquaintances with this dude, let alone fall for him. The night Toby offered her a bouquet of half dead flowers after a mission tied that knot.
•LIKE SRSLY MY MANS WAS SO GROSS AND HE DECIDED TO ASK HER OUT LIKE THAT- AND SHE SAID YES?????
•now onto the fun stuff, we all know who wears the pants in this relationship let’s be real I don’t even have to say.
•Jeanette finds Toby’s verbal tics cute, in the nicest way possible. He’s embarrassed by them, but she does her best to assure him they aren’t.
•Toby gives Jeanette the TIGHTEST hugs, the ones where she’s lifted off the ground with no air in her lungs. He really doesn’t realize how tight he’s holding her until she wheezes.
•Toby carries bandages and tissues on him for her !!
•Jeanette packs them lunch for their missions. It’ll usually be something a parent would pack for their child, a veggie, sandwich, and a snack with a water bottle. Of course, Toby is a big boy, so he gets a sub instead of just a sandwich. If they aren’t going on one together, she’ll put a note in with his meal. “Don’t die, dumbass. -Jean <3”
•While Toby is out, Jeanette cleans up his entire room. It is a fucking PROCESS but she gets it done right before he gets home. He’d usually walk in and find her passed out on his bed, exhausted from cleaning the shithole that is his bedroom.
•If Toby comes back from a mission roughed up, Jeanette urges him to the bedroom to treat his wounds. She knows he can’t feel any of his wounds, so she insists that she patches him up. Having experience in this, she does quite well cleaning him up. Of course, she’ll be murmuring half insults at him while she does it. “Dumbass-“ “how the fuck do you manage to do this???” He’d be laughing the entire time.
•Toby claimed the right side of the bed *when they do sleep together* much to Jeanette’s dismay. “Right is always right, Jenny.” He’d insist with a dumb grin. “Shut the fuck up, Toby-“
•TOBY IS THE LITTLE SPOON 78% OF THE TIME CMON NOW-
•Jeanette will literally just lay there with Toby like a teddy bear, playing with his hair and mumbling sweetness into the air. She listens to his breathing, feeling the way his body slowly stops twitching as he falls asleep in her embrace. The admiration this woman has for Toby is insane but she will never show it around anyone but him.
•the times Toby actually gets to be the big spoon is when Jeanette is too tired or viscerally stressed/upset to be the big spoon. Even so, he takes care of her as best he can. His hands will have a death grip on her, try and pry her away from him and he’ll bite. Literally. Man will fucking bite like a god damn dog.
•Toby LOVES tracing over Jeanette’s freckles, playing connect the dots with each one. She doesn’t mind this, his hands were so gently it usually soothes her nerves. He also traces over her scars, all of them. He just wishes his kisses could make them feel a little less painful.
•just because they’re laying down together doesn’t mean they’re sleeping, both having terrible nightmares most of the time. So, to avoid it, they’ll stay up for as long as possible talking about all sorts of things; their pasts, their fears, mindless thoughts, and laughing about nothing while half asleep.
•Jeanette makes the bed in the morning, along with breakfast. That bitch can fucking COOK LET ME TELL YOU WHAT- *let her cook-*
•Ok ok, so their first kiss- it is AWKWARD. Toby would try to be smooth about it and Jeanette would end up turning her head away. NOT IN A MEAN WAY BUT SHE’D JUST GET TOO OVERWHELMED AND HE’D END UP KISSING HER CHEEK.
•now, their REAL first kiss is very sweet. They’d most likely be out of the mansion alone together, somewhere in the woods. They’d probably find someplace abandoned and hang out there for awhile. Then, Toby would work up the courage to ACTUALLY ASK THIS TIME. Jeanette would go red immediately, watching as he sputters out incoherently that he wants to kiss her before she takes him by the cheeks and promptly shuts him up. The kiss would last for a good few seconds before they pull back. Toby would be stimming so harshly Jeanette thought she broke him. Then, he’d pull her back in for another smooch.
•Jeanette WILL be teasing him about this for the next few weeks.
•ALMOST COMPLETELY FORGOT-
PETNAMES-
For Jeanette: Jenny, Jean, Bean, Pups, shorty, dork
For Toby: Tobes, Bug, babs, hun, loser
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
ANGST
•they get into a LOT of arguments about their lives as proxies. Jeanette doesn’t enjoy being a proxy and literally hates the operator/Slender Man. While Toby on the other hand sees it as his savior of some kind, obeying anything it says. This can be frustrating for both parties for obvious reasons.
•both are unstable, like, extremely. Between Jeanette’s impatience and PlayBall fronting during arguments (which can get physical if this is the case) and Toby having bpd, his own immaturity and anger issues, their fights get intense. One will surely be crying or broken down in their room afterwards.
•When PlayBall does front, hoo boy do things get mean. PlayBall is cold and cruel towards everyone, including Toby. They will pick on everything Toby has to offer; Tics, abuse, his speaking manners, the way he dresses, anything. PlayBall will not hesitate to call Toby by “Ticci” or “Rogers” it the argument gets bad enough, all with a huge smile on their lips knowing damn well this will strike a nerve.
•Toby is very possessive, jealous. In the beginning of their relationship, he began isolating Jeanette from everyone in the mansion. At first, she didn’t mind but it became a bit much when she watched him snap at Brian while they were chatting in the kitchen about a mission. She confronted him about this which almost started an argument, him being very defensive about the topic.
•Toby was a major creeper before they got together, always watching Jeanette from afar even before she became a proxy. Once she started living with them all, she noticed some of her things started disappearing; lighters, hair ties, ect. Mostly small stuff, until one day her flannel went missing. She quickly found the culprit once she spotted a bundle of hair ties on Toby’s wrist and confronted him on it. Creepy.
•Jeanette can be very stand offish, constantly feeling like she’ll be dead soon either by her own hand or something else’s. Obviously, that’s not great when you’re in a relationship. She rarely talks about what’s on her mind, making it frustrating for Toby to talk to her at times. She bottles up a lot of her feelings until they spill over, usually on Toby, who kept prying.
•Because of Jeanette’s mentality on her life, Toby is constantly on high alert for her. He is horrified of the chance she could just kill herself or die at any moment. As sad as it is, he knows it’ll happen one day. He’s just lost too much already, losing Jeanette would most likely send him over the edge. He’s always nearby, constantly checking on her, keeping sharp objects and slender-sickness pills hidden away. He can’t risk it. He just can’t.
•Toby cleans Jeanette’s self harm often. He feels she shouldn’t have to do it herself, it’s the least he can do to help her. However, just seeing how brutal the wounds are make him want to cry at times. Some are so deep they need to be stitched. He learned just for her.
•The first time Jeanette lost herself during a job, she completely broke down. Blood was pouring from her nostrils, she was panting and crying. She was so used to dealing with this by herself, however, she wasn’t expecting Toby to be holding her the entire time. He’d be speaking so softly, offering to help her walk or support her in anyway he could. It was a foreign exchange for Jeanette, but she highly appreciated it. *though she’ll never admit that.*
•Toby plays guitar and sings for her when she’s distressed :(
•Jeanette will hold Toby through his tic attacks, making sure he doesn’t hurt himself *despite not feeling it.* when physically ticcing. She doesn’t care if he hits her on accident, she just wants to make sure he’s ok. Unfortunately for them both, these episodes could last for quite some time.
•When PlayBall fronts, Toby is the only person who knows how to get them to recess. Either talk about Jeanette’s father, or something else personal. Since Jeanette only ever opened up about this to Toby, he’s the only one who can help in this situation.
•neither of them touch alcohol, though Toby occasionally dabbles in marijuana from time to time. He’s aware of the past Jeanette has with drugs, so he makes sure to keep away when intoxicated to prevent any ‘incidents’.
